Three nurses have been sacked and a doctor reported to the Queensland Health Ombudsman after the suspicious deaths of five residents at a Townsville nursing home. The five people died over a 12-month period ending last November. All were palliative care residents at the Carinity Fairfield Grange aged care facility in the north Queensland city. In a statement, the facility’s CEO Jon Campbell said the matter was immediately reported to police and the coroner after concerns raised by a staff member. “As soon as we became aware of the breach of procedure on 21 November, the staff concerned were removed from the workplace and the matter was reported to the relevant authorities,” he said. Mr Campbell said Carinity also lodged a report with the Health Ombudsman about a doctor who treated all five residents.
