NHS Highland has apologised for failing to give proper care and treatment to a patient with dementia.

The man, who has not been named, was admitted to Raigmore Hospital in Inverness in January 2012 after having a seizure.

A watchdog has upheld a complaint from his wife that he was not given appropriate care and treatment.

The Scottish Public Services Ombudsman's Office has made a number of recommendations.

The woman's complaint that her husband was not properly assessed for rehabilitation prior to his discharge was also upheld.
