A nurse has been struck off after failing to identify a patient who died at Stafford Hospital was diabetic.
Gillian Astbury, 66, died at the hospital in April 2007 after not receiving insulin.
In July, a Nursing and Midwifery Council panel found former Stafford nurses Jeannette Coulson and Ann King guilty of misconduct.
King has been struck off by the panel, while Coulson was given a caution for a period of three years.
