A maternity unit has been given the lowest possible rating after the regulator described it as a 'chaotic environment'
In one example, there was no neonatal resuscitaire - a device used to give breathing support to babies when needed - on the antenatal day unit and no plan in place for how staff could access one in an emergency.
Among other issues, medicines were not always stored securely and staff"did not manage safety incidents well" or investigate them in a timely manner. However, the CQC report also found maternity service areas were clean and workers controlled infection well.Government rejects recommendation to increase maternity budget
They added:"Since the inspectors visited we have reviewed all of the areas highlighted by the CQC and we are taking immediate action to address the urgent issues raised in the report.
