A woman suffered a "significant failure" of basic medical care at a nursing home, a coroner has found.
Dorothea Hale, 75, had two strokes after heart surgery, which left her needing full-time care.
She moved to the Grosvenor Nursing Home in Abertillery, Blaenau Gwent, in July 2006, becoming malnourished and developing extensive pressure sores.
In November 2006 she was admitted to Nevill Hall hospital in Abergavenny and died there in January 2007.
In a narrative conclusion coroner Geraint Williams said Mrs Hale had a number of serious health conditions.
