Anton Steiger was found dead in bed on the morning after he had had a dispute at Scalebor Park Hospital where he worked.
His cause of death was asphyxia and it was suspected that he had taken an overdose of sleeping tablets following an incident in the dining area, but the medical evidence did not support that and an open verdict was returned.
