Numerous staff raised concerns about the actions of killer Lucy Letby for months before police were eventually called.
NHS whistleblowers are “treated like the problem”, leading medics have said, after it emerged that doctors who raised concerns about killer nurse Lucy Letby were forced to apologise to her.
On Friday she became Britain’s most prolific child killer, after she was convicted of the murder of seven babies and the attempted murder of six more during her shifts on the hospital’s neonatal unit between 2015 and 2016. In comments exclusively to the PA news agency, HCSA president Dr Naru Narayanan said: “It’s an appalling reminder of a culture which persists today in some parts of our NHS despite the many, many warnings we’ve had over the years.
“We’ve had report after report identifying the lack of an open culture where concerns can be raised without repercussions. It’s likely any investigation into the Letby case will find the same.” “We need to focus on safe staffing levels. We need to reform the disciplinary system to protect those who speak up from retribution later down the line.
