'This should not happen': Son's reaction to disclosure of mother's medical information to mystery caller by Northampton General Hospital

'This should not happen': Son's reaction to disclosure of mother's medical information to mystery caller by Northampton General Hospital A son said it was “scary” to find that details about his mother’s condition while in Northampton General Hospital were disclosed to a mystery caller posing as her husband who has been dead for four years.

Raymond Hughes, 64, from Daventry, phoned the hospital in the days after his mother was admitted on October 10.

After speaking with a hospital worker over the phone it emerged they told someone other than the listed next of kin about her treatment, tests being carried out on her, as well as her general condition. Northampton Chronicle and Echo
