Good evening. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:15 | |
The family of a five-year-old girl from Newport, | 0:00:15 | 0:00:16 | |
who died of an asthma attack, are calling for her | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
GP to be struck off. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:20 | |
Ellie-May Clark was taken to the local surgery by her mother, | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
but her doctor refused to see her because she was late | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
for the appointment. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:27 | |
She died a few hours later. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:28 | |
A General Medical Council investigation found that the GP's | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
failure to see and assess the child did not meet with the standards | 0:00:31 | 0:00:35 | |
required of a doctor. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:36 | |
Nick Palit reports. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
Memories of happier times. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:49 | |
These photos all Brandi Clark has left to remember her granddaughter, | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
Ellie-May, who died of an asthma attack. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:53 | |
Mum Shanice brought the five-year-old to | 0:00:53 | 0:00:55 | |
the doctor's surgery | 0:00:55 | 0:00:56 | |
in the Malpas area of Newport after she was sent home from school | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
early because teachers were concerned about her breathing. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
She had made an emergency appointment but was | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
a few minutes late. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:08 | |
She did tell them she might be five minutes late because she had to sort | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
out bringing the kids here and then phoning for a lift | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
because she wasn't driving at the time. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:16 | |
And when she got in, she was a few minutes late, | 0:01:16 | 0:01:24 | |
because she checked her phone. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:25 | |
And they wouldn't see her. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:35 | |
And you believe that decision cost Ellie-May her life? | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
Yes, because she did get worse. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:41 | |
So she had to phone the ambulance. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:51 | |
And while the ambulance was on its way, she collapsed. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:57 | |
And that was it, she was gone. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:05 | |
Ellie-May died that night before an ambulance could get | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
to the Royal Gwent Hospital. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:08 | |
That was two years ago. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:09 | |
Now the health board has carried out a serious concern report | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
into the actions of Doctor JoAnn role at the Grange clinic | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
and confirmed Ellie-May had a history of severe asthma | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
which the doctor was aware of. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:18 | |
The confidential report confirmed that Doctor Rowe refused to see | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
the child because she was late for the appointment and did not make | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
any clinical assessment. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:25 | |
What would you like to see happen to the doctor concerned? | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
I don't know how she should be punished, struck off. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
If she just said sorry, at least that would be something. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
But Doctor Rowe continues to practice, now in Cardiff. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
The General Medical Council investigation resulted in a warning | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
which will stay on her record for five years. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
It states... | 0:02:39 | 0:02:40 | |
Your failure to see and assess this child does not meet the standards | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
required of a doctor. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:44 | |
It risks bringing the profession into disrepute | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
and must not be repeated. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:47 | |
The Gwent coroner is investigating Ellie-May's death. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:49 | |
An inquest is yet to be held. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:50 | |
The family have fight on and get justice Ellie-May as they say | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
she will be forever in their thoughts. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
Funny little girl, bright. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:56 | |
Very intelligent. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:57 | |
So funny and loving. | 0:02:57 | 0:02:58 | |
Brandi Clark, ending that report by Nick Palit. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:00 | |
A 20-year-old woman, who played rugby for Wales, has died | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
in a car crash near Glynneath. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
Elli Norkett, from Llandarcy, | 0:03:04 | 0:03:05 | |
was the youngest player to take part in the 20-14 Rugby World Cup. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
Her family have paid tribute to her - and the Welsh Rugby Union | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
say she was a talented, dedicated player, | 0:03:11 | 0:03:12 | |
and popular teammate. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
Police are appealing for witnesses to the collision, | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
on the A4109 last night, to get in touch. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
A coroner has ordered Betsi Cadwaladwr Health Board | 0:03:20 | 0:03:22 | |
to respond, following an inquest into the death of a patient | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
at Glan Clwyd Hospital. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
Raymond Edwards had bowel surgery in 20-15 - | 0:03:27 | 0:03:33 | |
Raymond Edwards had bowel surgery in 2015 - | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
and tests afterwards showed he had a rare disease - but the results | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
were never passed to his consultant. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:39 | |
He died several months later - and the coroner said although this | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
did not cause his death - a future fatality could be possible, | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
if a reliable protocol isn't put in place. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
Any student seeking asylum should be able to finish their education | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
here, without facing threats of deportation. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
That's according to National Union of Students Wales - | 0:03:53 | 0:03:59 | |
which is supporting a campaign to stop Bangor University student - | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
Shiromini Satkunarajah - from being deported back to Sri | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
Lanka. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
The 20-year-old, who's in the third year of an electronic engineering | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
course, has been taken to a detention centre | 0:04:09 | 0:04:11 | |
after being refused asylum. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
The Home Office says it considers each case carefully. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:17 | |
This is a brutal thing to do at such a valuable time of someone's | 0:04:17 | 0:04:22 | |
educational experience. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
She is also an exceptional student, she is due | 0:04:25 | 0:04:30 | |
to be on course to finish her engineering degree with a | 0:04:30 | 0:04:32 | |
first-class honours. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
At the end of this year in electronical | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
engineering which is something skills wise we need | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
in the UK and in Wales. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
Despite Ukip's loss in Stoke-on-Trent Central's | 0:04:42 | 0:04:47 | |
by-election last week - the party's Assembly Leader, | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
Neil Hamilton, told Sunday Politics Wales that UKIP has | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
become an essential voice here. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:56 | |
The party was founded in 1991 with the aim of getting | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
the UK out of the EU. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
Following Brexit - Mr Hamilton denied Ukip had now | 0:05:00 | 0:05:02 | |
outlived its purpose. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:06 | |
Carwyn Jones doesn't hold a majority in the Assembly, he can only do so | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
with the accommodation of other parties. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:11 | |
We are an important voice in Wales. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:19 | |
We got the best part of 15% of the vote in the Assembly | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
election last year and all the current opinion polls show that we | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
would actually do better in Wales today than we did last May. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
Rugby - and Sam Warburton says Wales' players have | 0:05:28 | 0:05:30 | |
to be harsh on each other in reviewing their 29-13 | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
defeat to Scotland. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:34 | |
He says they all need to put their hands up if they made | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
mistakes during the game. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:38 | |
It was their first loss to Scotland since 2007. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:40 | |
A look at the weather now and rain should clear this evening, | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
but more heavy and blustery showers will move in from the west | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
overnight - to leave an unsettled day tomorrow - | 0:05:46 | 0:05:48 | |
with the chance of hail and thunder in places, | 0:05:48 | 0:05:50 | |
and snow over the hills. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:51 | |
Feeling cold, with highs of 7 Celsius. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:53 | |
I'll be back with our next update at 10.20pm. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:55 | |
Until then, enjoy your evening. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:56 | |
Bye-bye. | 0:05:56 | 0:06:02 |
