Breaking News: The city's hospital Trust - which is responsible for the Queen's Medical Centre and Nottingham City Hospital - has been fined £800,000
The city's hospital Trust - which is responsible for the Queen's Medical Centre and Nottingham City Hospital - was today fined £800,000 over serious failings in the care and treatment of mum Sarah Andrews and baby daughter, Wynter.
Midwives at the Queen's Medical Centre had told the inquest they were "overworked and understaffed", and said they didn't feel able to professionally challenge colleagues at the hospital. Assistant coroner Laurinda Bower had said: "These failures have a direct link to Wynter's death." Nottingham Magistrates' Court heard this week, baby Wynter was born in a "poor condition" after a Category A C-section. Extensive efforts were made to resuscitate and incubate but she did not respond and died.
In a statement after the guilty pleas were entered, Chief Executive Anthony May said: "We are truly sorry for the pain and grief that we caused Mr and Mrs Andrews due to failings in the maternity care we provided. We let them down at what should have been a joyous time in their lives".
