The prosecution is one of only two the CQC has brought against an NHS maternity unit
The trust is due to face sentencing at Nottingham Magistrates' Court later after pleading guilty to two charges.The regulator said it had brought the prosecution after the trust's mistakes meant Wynter and her mother Sarah Andrews did not receive safe care and treatment in its maternity services.- a loss of oxygen flow to the brain - which could have been prevented had staff delivered her earlier.
The CQC's prosecution consists of two charges to which the trust has pleaded guilty. The first is for its failures in Sarah's care, the other is for its failures in Wynter's care. The CQC said the trust's failure to ensure the family received safe care and treatment and the subsequent avoidable harm they suffered constituted a breach of regulations 12 and 22 of the Health and Social Care Act.By Rob Sissons, BBC East Midlands Today health correspondentSince it was formed in 2009, it has mounted 85 criminal prosecutions, but only six of those have previously involved NHS trusts.
It said there had been a lack of adequate processes and systems to ensure staff managed all risks to patients' health and wellbeing."It's an awful case for which we are very sorry. "We let the Andrews family down and we didn't give the care that we should've done. We recognise that the things the CQC found were right and we accept."
