Midwifery expert Donna Ockenden is chairing a review into maternity care at the Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust.
Donna Ockenden was speaking on the first anniversary of the independent review into NUHT being launched
The Nottingham Families Maternity Group is calling for police to investigate whether anyone is criminally culpable for the failings, claiming they “expect action”. The report’s publication has been pushed back after hundreds more families became automatically involved in the review following a change to the ‘opt-out’ system, which means families have to opt out of being involved, rather than opt in.
It comes as Dr Jack and Sarah Hawkins, a family involved in the review who became one of the first to raise concerns over care at NUHT after losing their daughter due to medical negligence, said they feared more scandals were yet to be uncovered due to staff feeling unable to speak out.
