Oshkosh police are taking a closer look at the death of a patient at the Winnebago Mental Health Institute earlier this year. Wisconsin regulators have questioned two cases of patient care at the facility. The patient who died had suffered a head injury in a fall. W-B-A-Y television reports he wasn’t transferred to a hospital for treatment for nearly 14 hours, then required surgery for bleeding of the brain — before he died. A police investigation will determine whether a crime was committed. It was revealed in January that the institute was subject to termination from the Medicare program for non-compliance.
