Duchess hoax call: nurse's family tells of anguish as MP accuses royal hospital Mr Vaz told BBC Radio 4"s The World at One: "My thoughts are with the family. They are devastated by what has happened, they are shocked and they are bewildered. What is necessary is a focus on their needs. I would like to see them get the same support that is apparently being given to others because this is a very traumatic time. What is needed clearly is an inquiry by the hospital into what has happened. I am a little surprised that nobody has made the journey to Bristol to sit with them and offer the counselling they need. He added that the family would be unable to grieve until they knew the facts about Mrs Saldanha's death. Mrs Saldanha, 46, put through the hoax call last Tuesday. She was pronounced dead on Friday morning. Mr Barboza, an NHS accountant, and his family visited Scotland Yard yesterday with a family liaison officer, before meeting Mr Vaz in the House of Commons. Last night they visited the hospital. Mrs Saldanha's mother, Carmine, is in hospital in India with a heart condition. Narveen Saldanha, her brother, said she was "heartbroken, weeping and is now under sedation." Mr Barboza spoke about his loss on a tribute website. "Struggling to come to terms with my wife Jacintha's tragic loss," he wrote. No strength to bear this loss. The hospital has set up a memorial fund, with all donations going to the family. It said it told Mrs Saldanha she was not to blame for the prank and that there would be no disciplinary proceedings. John Lofthouse, the chief executive, said he had "made it clear" to Mr Barboza that the hospital would offer its support. The post mortem examination will take place today and an inquest is expected to open later this week.
