No parent should have to go through this
Nottingham University Hospital NHS Trust has apologised, through its lawyer, after pleading guilty to failing to provide safe care and treatment to new mum Sarah Andrews and her baby daughter, Wynter Andrews - who died just 23 minutes after birth at the Queen's Medical Centre. Two charges were pleaded guilty to on Wednesday morning, January 25, on the Trust's behalf at Nottingham Magistrates' Court concerning its "failure to provide safe care and treatment".
"Was this something to do with cost-cutting or trying to save money?" he said in addressing District Judge Grace Leong. "It very clearly was not, no one makes that observation," he added. A long-term national and local receruitment drive is underway, and the number of midwives leaving the profession is a "matter of national note," said Mr Thoroughgood.
It comes after a string of failings involving the NUH maternity services. Nottingham families affected by maternity failings say they have been given hope after meeting the midwife in charge of a new review. Donna Ockenden met with parents, some of whom had babies who died or suffered serious injuries, in the city on Monday, July 11.
