Up to 30 mothers and babies died at Furness General Hospital because of failings by staff and management, a damning report is expected to reveal.
This statement aligns with the numerous reports and investigations into the care provided at Furness General Hospital, particularly focusing on the maternity and neonatal services from 2004 to 2013. The Morecambe Bay Investigation Report, published in 2015, highlighted significant failures in care, associating these with three maternal deaths and sixteen baby deaths shortly after birth. Further, various sources, including BBC News and The Guardian, have covered the scandal, detailing the "lethal mix" of failings, including poor clinical competence, inadequate staff skills, and significant organizational failures.
