Nottingham University Hospitals is fined £800,000 after admitting failings in the care of a baby who died after 23 minutes
An NHS trust has been fined £800,000 after admitting failings in the care of a baby who died after 23 minutes.
However, District Judge Grace Leong said she was "acutely aware" the fine would be paid for by funding that would usually be used for patient care.- a loss of oxygen flow to the brain - which could have been prevented had staff delivered her earlier. Wynter was delivered "in poor condition" at 14:05 on 15 September 2019, with the umbilical cord "wrapped tightly around her leg and neck", and efforts to resuscitate her were abandoned 23 minutes later. She died in her parents' arms.
Passing sentence on Friday, the district judge said: "The catalogue of failings and errors exposed Mrs Andrews and her baby to a significant risk of harm which was avoidable, and such errors ultimately resulted in the death of Wynter and post-traumatic stress for Mrs Andrews and Mr Andrews.
