Four other suspicious deaths are under investigation as are six cases in which the patient survived. The investigation began earlier this month after a woman at a nursing home became unexpectedly unwell. She was taken to hospital, where medical staff said they suspected she had been given a dose of insulin. Nursing home officials then called in the police. The man was remanded in custody for 90 days while the investigation continues.
