Final days of 'loving' mum found unresponsive at mental health hospital

The final days of a "loving, caring" mum who was found unresponsive on the floor of a mental health hospital bathroom have been set out in court.

Mum of two Zainab Mohamed, 38, was admitted to Clock View Mental Health Hospital in Walton on June 1, 2021, after seven weeks of manic symptoms caused by the most severe case of bipolar disorder her psychiatrist had ever seen. She was initially checked on every 15 minutes by staff, but these checks were reduced to once an hour on June 7.

On the afternoon of June 10, she was found unresponsive on a bathroom floor, and was rushed to Aintree Hospital, where she was placed on life support. She died on June 14, with a cause of death being cardiac arrest caused by asphyxia, which was caused by bipolar disorder.
