Tony Chambers is now blame the doctors; ”
‘However, Chambers appeared to blame senior doctors for failing to spot that two newborn boys had been poisoned with insulin in attacks on 5 August 2015 and eight months later on 9 April 2016.
In both cases, the results of blood tests were reported back to the neonatal unit but their significance appears to have been missed at the time.
The results were uncovered nearly two years later when Dr Stephen Brearey, the lead consultant paediatricianon the unit, was asked by police to examine the records of twins and triplets as part of the police investigation.
Chambers said: “These blood test results were the only strong evidence of potential harm and would have materially altered the focus of subsequent inquiries and actions if they had been raised with me or any other senior manager in August 2015.””
If you had involved the police early, Mr Chambers, they would have been discovered much sooner!
