I don’t think she should be allowed near any vulnerable people ever again, much less be in charge of their care. Makes me ill to think about tbh.She might try getting a job in a nursing home. Given that their residents die on regular basis..
I agree. But if she is found NG, what would prevent her from becoming a carer to someone vulnerable? Even if she is struck off from nursing for IG breeches.I don’t think she should be allowed near any vulnerable people ever again, much less be in charge of their care.

His comment yesterday that it was “mind boggling” that the medics have said the babies in the case were doing well. It’s really grim. Little problem for Benny boy are the many texts of people’s shock and disbelief that the babies died at all and that they died so rapidly. That SB launched his own investigations and enquiries to try and make sense of the deaths. While a baby unexpectedly declining, even extremely rapidly, may not be out of all possibilities, that it can happen when one person is placed at the scene over and over again is just utter nonsense. She has no defence.Today will be a tough one. I can't imagine the horror the parents have felt listening to BNE's closing speech and hearing again the evils LL did to their poor babies; but today they'll start hearing someone trying to pass their deaths off as a conspiracy, or down to poor care/staffing etc.
I think there will be a lot of anger and emotion from where the parents are sat![]()
I work in a nursing home, usually short staffed and the owners would've employed Harold Shipman if it meant they didn't have to employ agency staff.I agree. But if she is found NG, what would prevent her from becoming a carer to someone vulnerable? Even if she is struck off from nursing for IG breeches.

So he's going along the route to start with of Mel Taylor being overworked as well as David Harkness so sub-optimal care.10:35am
The trial is now resuming.
Benjamin Myers KC is referring to the case of Child A.
He says there was sub-optimal care in that case.
He says on a neonatal unit, babies "are there for a reason" and many of the babies have "signficant problems" and are "at risk of deterioration".

He says Melanie Taylor was designated nurse for Child A and Child B. They were both intensive care babies.
He says the prosecution have relied on nursing guidelines for some of the children, but not on the "fundamental issue" of staffing numbers.
He says there "should not have been just one nurse" looking after Child A and Child B.
He says if there was one nurse for each, they would be "more confident" the issue of lines and nursing care was resolved.
He adds Dr David Harkness was stretched between a number of babies for the shift on June 8, 2015.
Doesn't this need to have been bought up earlier though? Thought this was a summary not new reasons.So he's going along the route to start with of Mel Taylor being overworked as well as David Harkness so sub-optimal care.
