My baby girl Harriet finally had her funeral 5 years ago today. She was nearly two. She spent all that time in a freezer. Eventually people (names names) admitted liability and negligence and we carried her to her final resting. I am so sad ❤️

My first daughter Harriet was born 6 years ago. I love being her father, I’m heartbroken that she’s not here. That she is dead. That she should be alive and that all the people who needed to know knew that her death was possible yet didn’t act. Harriet. My beautiful 😍 ❤️😊

I’d like to say that we do not agree with the cqc right to reply that they only became aware of Harriet’s case 4.5 years after her death. We have their emails to prove this.

Harriet was warm when I first held her. The last time she was freezer cold. God I loved holding her. She was in NUH freezer for near 2 years until they admitted liability. In that time we had 2 messages, one from board, to see if we could move her to a ‘more appropriate place’

What about working with unnecessarily bereaved parents @gmcuk ? An investigation into our clinicians was completed without our knowledge/ input and based on incorrect info. When we raised concerns about this another investigation was completed without our input again! #failed

@Kimberleyerrin2 That’s just awful. Did they use the word phrase ‘we can’t reconcile these conflicting accounts (between you and the maternity team) and in essence ‘side’ with the hospital? They do it to do so many causing untold grief and harm

Neither of us smoke. Neither overweight. Stuck up for ourselves. Accept risk…dead baby and massive attempt to cover up. So. Nope. It’s complex. There is no easy solution or even any solution, just a forensic fascination by care teams to improve.

@SarahFairley7 Thank you ☺️. The outstanding question is ‘why?’ That requires honesty from people who absolutely can be honest. Maybe they will be soon

@mjrsimmonds @ShaunLintern @ICMdoc In fact Mark. Where have you been. I hear you’re deputy medical director now. There will be 10s probably 100s of cases of avoidable harm including deaths at NUH. When there was the horrible stabbing here you commented on that. But nothing for us, harmed by your Hosp. Why?

I think we need to consider Each Baby Counts data with huge scepticism. It is self reported with considerable data quality issues. NUH self reported. East Kent. Morecambe bay. SAFT. Still 100 seems incredibly low

@jackhawkski I think the number is higher. This is from the 2019 Each Baby Counts progress report. 130 intrapartum stillbirths and 150 neonatal deaths within 7 days of birth. All term babies (> or = 37w gestation).

@RMatthewsPsyEdu @ElaineReplogle @robllewelyn The RCOG admitted that it was ‘usual’ for colleagues to receive consultant delivered care whatever the risk. So presumably they know it’s unsafe and come in when off duty to deliver ‘more important’ babies. While leaving the poor safety to others

@sajidjavid Donna Ockenden’s report says these multiple reviews don’t achieve what is needed. Don’t put us through another review (there have been so many here already). Get into this. It’s easy. Say yes and let’s get it better

Yup. I wasn’t expecting it and the instant emotions had me crying. The look on Lottie’s face was pure joy 🥰. So you know, we talk about Harriet with Lottie, openly and appropriately for her current understanding.

We were at the park last week with our 2 year old. Lottie came running up to us with her new friend who was called Harriet. “Mummyyy, Daddyyy I’ve found Harriet and she’s not dead” 💔. Imagine this for the rest of your lives. Imagine this stress @NottmMaternity

@autinveniamviam @RMatthewsPsyEdu What is interesting is just how many senior medical health professionals get their consultant Obs colleagues delivering their babies. Just to be on the safe side, or, in another view, we know what we offer ‘you lot’ is riskier

@EmilyJBarley NUH board tried (and succeeded) for years and years to satisfy themselves and nhse that their benchmark against other trusts was ok. All the while harm and death. 1700 over 10 years is 3.2 a week of serious harm and death.

@mancunianmedic Also thanks for reading about maternity. Means a lot. It’s not staffing. It’s bad care wrapped up in Al sorts of ideology. Imagine you have a collapse. 2 teams. One does hx+ex+bloods+ecg. One doesn’t and says it’s normal and you need to accept it. That’s maternity.

A major concern is the difference between this internal message and the messages to the press and externally. There they ‘welcome’ and will ‘fully engage’ or similar phrases. Why different? Something is wrong for this to happen

A memo from ⁦ @nottmhospitals ⁩ after ⁦ @DOckendenLtd ⁩ visit to families. It must be stressful to have your service under a spotlight but nothing compared with the despair of those families who’ve suffered loss and harm and had no answers.
