Description

An independent review into maternity failings at Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust found that at least 210 deaths could have been avoided. On the Sky News Daily podcast with Rob Powell, our Midlands correspondent Becky Johnson looks at the wider implications of the report. Rhiannon Davies and Richard Stanton, who lost their daughter Kate in 2009, share their experience. And Gill Walton, chief executive of the Royal College of Midwives, explains the importance of patient safety at a time of staffing shortages. We should warn you that there are some distressing details in this episode.Producers: Soila Apparicio, Annie Joyce, Emma Rae Woodhouse Interviews Producer: Reece Denton Digital Producer: David Chipakupaku Editor: Paul Stanworth
