Health board taking matter 'extremely seriously'

I would like to reassure patients and their families that we are taking this matter extremely seriously and that our priority is to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our vulnerable patients.

Immediate action has been taken in order to safeguard the patients and staff on Tawel Fan ward.

A small number of staff have been removed from patient care duties while we investigate.

Tawel Fan ward will reopen as soon as it is safe and appropriate to do so.”

– Angela Hopkins, Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board
