A SOUTHAMPTON woman who fell four times while at Southampton General Hospital died after contracting pneumonia.
An inquest heard how Margaret Holdaway, known as “Mags”, of Lord Mountbatten Close, was admitted on May 14 last year with malnutrition and a number of other ongoing medical problems.
She fractured her hip while at hospital and pathologist Dr Sanjay Jogai said the 72-year-old struggled to fight the infection.
Sarah Whitby, assistant coroner for south Hampshire, recorded a verdict of death by natural causes.
