Maternity bosses at the trust said the new process for dealing with Serious Incidents will mean it can investigate them more quickly
Two specialist investigators have been hired by Nottingham University Hospitals Trust to look at serious incidents within its maternity units. .
Ms Gray said the organisation has “established a refined process for managing serious incidents” meaning SIs can be responded to in a “much more contemporary manner”. She said: “We have gone out to recruitment for two maternity investigations to support that. She added: “At the moment we have 20 open Serious Incidents which is a significant reduction from where we were previously.” She said no Serious Incidents were recorded in June and one was recorded in May.
Ms Gray said: “The simple answer is yes, I think this will be much more sustainable. Previously the way we ran Serious Incident investigations was to establish a panel made up of clinical colleagues who worked their normal workload and Serious Incident investigations on top of that.
