The story is in full on the TVNZ website if anyone wants to read it but the ruling was:

"The health and disability commissioner found no evidence of note doctoring but ruled that the midwives had failed to keep adequate records, failed to co-ordinate back-up and breached the code in several respects. They were ordered to review their practices, undertake further training and send a letter of apology."

im from the waikato and a few people have had her as MW and its not the first time soemthing like this has happened with this women...........of course this is the most horriable case and i dont think that any others come close..........apparently she is still practicing or was until last night......... the lady had 3 MW (dont know why but can only guess its cause she couldnt concieve) if the lead MW thought she had honestly done the correct thing then why wont she comment?? she is an extrememly rude lady at the best of times...............oh and some one asked how long she had been practising.............for donkeys years ..... all i can say is beware of this lady if your in the waikato ...............oh and one more thing.............im annoyed that there isnt some site we can go to with names of MW that have had serious action taken against them......like child moleste4rrs..just found out there was one 2 doors down from me.

yeah what got me was that they wernet willing to give their side of the story..if what the poor mother was saying wasnt true, or she was making it out to be more the fault fo the LMC than it actually was- wouldnt the LMC have been more than happy to front up and say their side of the story? if they really did do everything they could to help the baby and mother, then they wouldnt have refused to comment imho..
and yes the letter of apology was disgusting!
I started watching it and then DH came and sat and watche4d it too. once it was over we sat in stunned silence. Dh is one of 5 children in his family, 2 of his younger siblings have special needs, so its not shocking for him to see in that way, but to think someone who is supposed to be professional and know what they are doing to ruin a childs and their families life like that absolutely floored him. now hes saying he wants us to be back in auckalnd when we have our 1st baby coz he doesnt want just one small hospital to be the only option for us.. im starting to think that might be a good idea,,,, its just so scary!
