Parents taking legal action against medical facility over child's passing.
A heartbreaking tragedy has struck the Tyson family as they mourn the loss of their beloved son Charles, who passed away while under the care of Ramsay Health Care. In what was supposed to be a simple hospital visit for an ulcer on his foot, Charles never returned home. His father, Darren Tyson, is now taking legal action against the reputed healthcare provider, alleging that they failed to properly manage his son's condition.

Charles' sudden and unexpected death has left his family in shock and disbelief. According to his father, the hospital had assured them that Charles would be discharged within a few days. But instead, they received a devastating call at 4:30 am on a Wednesday morning, informing them of his passing. A turn for the worse in his health the night before his expected discharge proved fatal for the 33-year-old.

The family holds Ramsay Health Care, which was managing Mildura Hospital at the time, responsible for their son's death. Charles' brother Zack expressed their frustration, stating that those who made grave errors need to be held accountable. "They are highly trained, supposedly highly educated and highly paid," he said. His mother, Julie Tyson, also shared her disappointment, stating that no one cared to listen to their concerns. She believes that the hospital's negligence in managing Charles' ulcer wound and removing him from crucial medication ultimately led to his death.

A detailed coroner's report revealed shocking details about the mismanagement of Charles' treatment. "There's a reporting of when his toes were removed that the infection improved. It's very, very clear in the coroner's report he had 10 fingers and 10 toes," Darren Tyson said. The family is determined to seek justice for their son and has decided to pursue legal action against Ramsay Health Care.

However, this is not the first time Ramsay Health Care has faced such accusations. A father of three from Western Australia also lost his life due to the alleged negligence of the healthcare provider during a surfing trip to Indonesia. The family is not willing to let go of their son's case and demands a re-examination to ensure that justice is served.

Meanwhile, Ramsay Health Care has released a statement claiming that the matter was dealt with three years ago through a coronial hearing, and no adverse findings were made against Mildura Base Hospital. But even after the hospital came under public management, it continues to receive criticism for its substandard services. A dossier of complaints from community members has been obtained by 9News, highlighting the hospital's shortcomings.

Jenna Doeke is among the many individuals who have spoken out against the hospital's negligence. She claims that doctors failed to recognize her baby daughter's critical condition, and it was only when she arrived at the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne that it was detected. "She said, 'This is actually very serious, your baby is very sick'," Doeke said. "I said to her, 'Is she going to make it?' and she said 'I don't know'." However, the hospital has denied her claims and stated that she was regularly updated throughout the ordeal.

In the wake of Charles Tyson's death, the hospital has implemented 17 recommendations to improve its procedures. But for his family, it's not enough. They believe that his case needs to be re-examined to ensure that justice is served for their beloved son. "He'll never get to be there for our funerals, we did his instead," his father said. "We need justice for Charles."

The Tyson family's loss has left a void in their lives that can never be filled. As they continue to grieve the untimely death of their son, they hope that their fight for justice will bring about a change in the healthcare system.
