Mrs King, a 91-year-old patient of Royal North Shore Hospital, was
suffering from blood clots in her legs, having been left alone in a
medical equipment storeroom with no emergency buzzer. A photograph of
Mrs King lying on a hospital bed was published today in The Daily
Telegraph claiming the elderly lady was photographed in the hospital's
storeroom.

That's horrific. I recall a similar story, about 8 years ago, in which a patient left a London hospital unnoticed, and was found dead a few days later in an alley.
