Jess Featherstone with her friend, Liam Phillips. An inquest is underway at Hamilton District Court looking into Phillips death.
A former director of Waikato Hospital’s emergency department says it s not acceptable a man who went to hospital following a mental health incident waited alone for four hours without seeing a doctor. And his mother says she s “really disappointed” her son could not get timely help when he needed it most. Hamilton man Liam Jacob Phillips, 24, was found dead at his home on August 9, 2016. He had suffered a mental health incident days before, calling the crisis team and arriving at ED in an ambulance.
