Karen Rees said she did not have enough information to justify removing the killer nurse from the Countess of Chester Hospital’s neonatal unit.
A former nursing chief has said she was not given enough information to be able to remove nurse Lucy Letby from a neonatal unit after it was claimed she refused to so.
The hospital’s neonatal unit head consultant, Dr Stephen Brearey, told Manchester Crown Court he had informed Ms Rees that he and his colleagues were “not happy” with Letby because of the number of baby deaths and collapses during her shifts. Ms Rees said she was told at that stage that Dr Brearey thought Letby should be removed from the neonatal unit.
Ms Rees said in her statement: “Stephen Brearey was measured throughout… I said that if there were issues, then I needed to know what they were. She added: “At no point did he say that he suspected she had been purposely harming babies. If he had said that there had been 16 deaths, and that she was present for all of them, then my actions may well have differed.
