Waitemata DHB will review its He Puna Waiora mental health unit, after two patients died in one week.
It's similar to what happened in 2015, when 21-year-old Nicky Stevens was found dead three days after disappearing from Waikato Hospital - despite his family warning staff of his desire to commit suicide.
His father, Dave McPherson says these recent deaths show nothing has changed, and families still aren't being listened to.
