This is The Guardian.
Unprecedented, it's the largest maternity investigation in NHS history.
What was found was completely shocking and damning.
Mothers being dismissed, being denied pain relief.
There were babies who were starved of oxygen.
For over a decade, a lot of these inadequacies and failures were known.
However, they were kind of swept under the carpet.
People higher up in the staff just didn't want to deal with the fallout of what this could have been.
Yeah, so this review has been highly anticipated.
And I think, you know, the damning findings were kind of expected.
This has been in the pipeline for a long time.
Donna Ockenden, who led the report, she'd interviewed over 2500 families and 850 former staff members and current staff members at the Trust.
Which is unprecedented in scale.
Yeah, unprecedented.
It's the largest maternity investigation in NHS history.
And what was found was, you know, completely shocking and damning.
Ockenden found that there were systemic deep rooted issues at the trust.
This kind of ranged from both the workplace culture with staff shortages.
The workplace culture was also described as being toxic.
but also in terms of the care that mothers and babies received.
