The staff and residents at the Tswelopele Frail Care Centre, in Hillbrow, are in mourning.<\/p>\n

The body of missing resident Horst Grobelyn (84), who suffered from dementia (GCN, June 5), was positively identified in the Bertha Gxowa Hospital\u2019s mortuary on June 8.<\/p>

Grobelyn went missing from the centre on May 8.<\/p>\n

Nursing service manager at Tswelopele Sylvia Modiselle told the GCN that hospital records show that he was admitted to the hospital on May 10 and died on May 13.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cAs he suffered from dementia and memory loss and could not always remember his name, the name on the file was not his and, although we visited the hospital a number of times, we did not trace him due to this,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
