A woman was tragically found dead just days after leaving for hospital after attempting to take her own life, an inquest has found.
Fizza Tazeen Ahmed was found dead on April 3, 2022, in woodland in south Manchester. The 39-year-old left Wythenshawe Hospital on March 29, having spent 10 days in its Bronte Ward based at Laureate House. The Bronte Ward, a mixed gender acute ward for patients with mental health problems, is run by Greater Manchester Mental Health Trust.
Ms Ahmed was there as an ‘informal’ — i.e. voluntary — patient following a suicide attempt on March 19. She had called an ambulance for herself and then agreed to transfer from A&E to the mental health unit, area coroner Zak Golombek heard today (April 5, 2023).
