- Replying to @peter__duffyReally feel for you Peter. A tragic and entirely unnecessary waste of your talent and experience to the NHS and your patients.
- As one traverses one's course through life's challenges, one occasionally comes into contact with individuals who have such a profound effect on you, as to achieve almost 'hero status.' Today, for me, Mr Alan Bates, at the PO Inquiry, crossed this very high line. I salute him.
00:00 - An insightful perspective by @DavidDavisMP regarding the plight of NHS whistleblowers following the Lucy Letby Press Conference yesterday. Could he be about to become the equivalent of Lord Arbuthnott in the PO Inquiry for NHS whistleblowers? I so, so hope so! 🙏
00:00 - Believe me the atmosphere certainly won't be 'calm' when there are Maternity emergencies, when the only ability to seek Obstetric, Anaesthetic and Neonatal input is to call a blue-light ambulance and to endure a perilous 13 mile trip to the Winchester Maternity Unit 🚑 🏥Discover the calm atmosphere of our newly opened Birth Centre at Andover War Memorial Hospital, featuring a birthing pool with soft lighting. Meet Harriet, our Community Midwifery Matron, who introduces you to the various birthday aids available to support your journey.
00:00 - Fascinating statement from @nickwallis author of 'The Great Post Office Scandal' and 'Mr Bates v the Post Office' on ITV tonight at 2100hrs. This will ring so depressingly true with those who have fallen foul of persecution and victimisation as NHS (and other) whistle-blowers.
00:00 - I found this a really, really tough watch last night, having recently experienced, first-hand, as a 20-year experienced Obs & Gynae Consultant, the devastating and career-destroying consequences of whistleblowing maternity service safety concerns 😟 #Newsnight"I trusted them, I believed them, my birth plan was to have my healthy baby... I didn't think there was anything wrong until they said she was dead" Sarah Hawkins, whose baby died during labour as a result of clinical negligence, explains how she fought for answers #newsnight
00:00 - Of the literally thousands of documents that I have read, since becoming interested in the #LucyLetby case and conviction, this document, released from the Thirlwall Inquiry today is, without doubt, the most astonishing and utterly condemning of how her case was handled at CofCH
- Beyond words. Despicable. Sarah and Jack were senior employees at this Trust and yet were still treated in this demeaning and inhumane manner. The staff and Managers involved were their professional colleagues.This case demonstrates everything that is wrong with UK Maternity care💔 NEW: A hospital at the centre of the largest NHS maternity scandal let a baby's body decompose so badly it was 'triple bagged' for the funeral - midwives then "mocked" the dad, replaying a phone call he'd made at a "leadership away day" New link: thetimes.com/article/82a2ed…
- youtu.be/eQbmkPEFluE The CEO of CofC, who presided over the Lucy Letby travesty, proceeding to persecute and victimise the brave Consultants who whistleblew concerns, recorded and posted this video 9 YEARS AGO! 9 years ago. 'A game changer!!!' 🤔😳
- The very worst, life-changing injuries, across my 30-year Obstetric career, were sustained following deliberately -planned and executed hands-off deliveries durjng water-births, following prolonged periods of maternal immersion.Replying to @MartynPitmanSeen less damage with grenades with some of the hands off injuries
- Was Dewi Evans really making it all up as he went along?🤔 Are the wheels about to finally fall off? @drphilhammond
- Prog rock masterclass by the legendary @HackettOfficial and his incredible, note perfect band last night at the Brighton Dome. Beautiful lighting @CurranLighting. Great new material and truly memorable performance of Genesis: Seconds Out. What a night! What a band!😃
