An employee at St Vincent de Paule Home was suspended for three days on half pay for serious negligence and arrogant behaviour, Social Policy Minister John Dalli said today.
He said an inquiry was held after report last year that an 81-year-old woman who died at the home had been placed on a wooden table in the home's mortuary, with her head resting on a water can.
The minister was replying to a parliamentary question by Joe Mizzi.
