There was no lifeguard present when Stephen Paul Richards, 73, sunk beneath the water and staff failed to spot him on CCTV
A grandad died after being left submerged in a retirement village pool for 11 minutes. An inquest into the death of Stephen Paul Richards, 73, heard that there was no lifeguard present at Richmond Village's wellness spa in Aston-on-Trent and staff failed to spot him on CCTV.
A medical examination conducted by pathologist Dr Terrance Jones concluded that the grandfather suffered from an undiagnosed cardiac arrhythmia and suffered a cardiac arrest. The primary cause of his death was a "catastrophic and irreversible" hypoxic cerebral injury caused by a lack of oxygen to his brain.
Both, she added, were of “equal significance”. The inquest heard how there was not a lifeguard present and spa staff left Mr Richards on his own, failing to spot him on CCTV.

Ms Pinder ended proceedings by offering her condolences to Mr Richard's family, adding she was “pleased” measures have been taken by the spa.
"He also had a good career and was respected by a lot of people in the village and during his career. He worked for the railway as an engineer for most of his life, and then as an HR trustee of a pension fund. He’s very much missed.”
