A national probe into NHS maternity care follows severe failures at Oxford’s John Radcliffe Hospital, including stillbirths and harm to newborns.
Families at Oxford’s John Radcliffe Hospital have reported severe care failures, including stillbirths, neonatal harm, and emotional trauma, prompting a national investigation into NHS maternity services.
Cases include a baby wrongly declared stillborn in 2011 who survived for 12 hours, and mothers denied appropriate care despite clear medical risks.
The Oxford University Hospitals Trust acknowledged systemic failures, apologized to affected families, and committed to improvements including hiring 54 new midwives and enhancing training.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting called the findings a “moral failure,” while the trust pledged full cooperation with a national probe led by Baroness Amos.
