Retraction and apology
The Morning Star wishes to make clear that the reference to Care UK in the lead story on page 5 yesterday (Elderly go hungry on hospital wards) was entirely erroneous and unjustified.
The company mentioned was in no way involved in the incident reported.
In fact, Care UK is independently assessed as being among the highest ranked care providers by independently assessed quality standards with almost 90 per cent of its homes rated "good" or "excellent."
We retract any such imputation unreservedly and apologise for any distress caused by the article.
