She said: "It is a very unfortunate situation. New born babies should have two identification bands – one on the arm and one on the leg. Midwives should check babies have these two name bands before they are released." More... HAVE YOUR SAY! Please reply to this thread to discuss this news item.      |

 Re: The RCM comments on baby mix-up case at East Midlands Hospital Isn't it common practice to make these checks on babies?

| Re: The RCM comments on baby mix-up case at East Midlands Hospital Hi all! Im a bit of a newbie here.. I was interested in this news article because it happened to one of our own family when they were a child (luckily the mistake was quickly put right) However I was looking p who Breedagh Hughes was and I came accross this http://hiddenireland.wordpress.com/2...minal-charges/ If its true , how is she speaking on behalf of the RCM? Especially as she goes on to talk about investigations etc.......  |
