Petition Refocus investigation of maternity care and expand to include all NHS trusts
We call on the Government to expand the investigation of maternity care to include all NHS trusts. The review should address birth trauma, unsafe staffing, and ensure funding to recruit and train more midwives for safer care.
More details
Families have suffered birth trauma, injuries, and loss due to unsafe staffing and overstretched maternity units. Many NHS trusts are not part of current investigations. We think a full national investigation and increased funding for midwife recruitment and training are urgently needed to ensure safety and accountability for all families.
