Saint John Regional Hospital's safety policies are being questioned after a patient died after falling from a balcony to the lobby below, according to an article on the Atlantic CTV website.
The death at the New Brunswick hospital has prompted a call for a public inquiry into patient safety.
After an earlier patient death, a coroner's jury considered a number of recommendations, including moving the psychiatric unit to a more secure location, and addressing how patients can leave the unit.
Neither police, nor Horizon Health will say which unit the man who fell was on.
