'He came back, got his shotgun and shot himself': Care home boss reveals how her husband was driven to fatal despair as residents died from Covid and sick staff struggled on with PPE made out of duvet covers Louise Hough ran Gwastad Hall Nursing Home near Wrexham with her husband Vernon (both left and right), but the home became overrun by Covid last year and many of the residents tragically died. Father-of-four Vernon, 61, was found fatally injured at a police headquarters in May last year - just a mile from his care home where he was 'devoted' to his 40 elderly residents. His heartbroken wife, who has since retired, said Vernon was finding it difficult to deal with seeing the residents suffering, securing PPE for staff and trying to get medical help to the private care home.
