Wynter Andrews' tragic death shortly after birth in 2019 has led to Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust being fined multiple times for repeated care failures. The recent record fine of £1.6 million followed the prosecution for the deaths of other infants, demonstrating the trust's ongoing issues with inadequate care and communication. Parents Sarah and Gary Andrews expressed their frustrations over what they perceive as empty promises from the NHS regarding improvements. The trust is currently under investigation for over 2,000 maternity cases dating back to 2012, underscoring a larger problem with patient safety in their facilities.
"The record fine reflects a pattern of failures at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, confirming that Wynter's death was not an isolated incident but part of systemic issues."
"The judge highlighted that the inadequacies in care and communication have exposed multiple families to significant risks, leading to avoidable harm for several newborns."
