A failure to provide basic medical care contributed to Natasha Hewitt's death, a coroner rules.

Natasha Hewitt's husband Nick said she was "loving and caring" and had made his life "complete"The death of a woman who died from multiple blood clots could have been prevented, a coroner has ruled.Prior to her death she had complained of "migraine-like" symptoms and had sought advice from her GP, NHS 111 and visited a walk-in centre.

Advanced Clinical Practitioner, Nazakat Hussain, told the inquest Mrs Hewitt did not disclose her history of blood clots when he saw her at the walk-in centre in Sheffield.Mr Hussain said the symptoms described to him at the time were "common signs of an infection inside the ear".The coroner was told she called NHS 111, which was staffed by Yorkshire Ambulance Service employees.

Ms Hodgson said that if the headaches had been recorded it was "more likely than not" that Mrs Hewitt would have been taken to hospital that day. In hindsight, Dr Michael Taylor said he wished he had not purely relied on notes from others and had called his patient.
