On 25 April 2005 the Ombudsman received a complaint from Mrs C about the care and treatment provided to her father (Mr F) by Fife NHS Board. Mrs C complained that the Board had not carried out a proper medical assessment of Mr F's condition and had prescribed inappropriate medication. Mrs C said that her father's medication was changed to a drug which could be injurious to his health and which, given his medical history, had the potential to be fatal.
