Dr Stephen Brearey said hospital executives should be regulated and held accountable the same way doctors are
A hospital consultant said he was made to feel he was 'a problem' when he blew the whistle on killer nurse Lucy Letby.
Letby, 33, was eventually removed from night shifts - but she carried on attacking infants during day shifts at the neonatal unit at the Countess of Chester Hospital. Yesterday , Letby was handed a whole life term by a judge at Manchester Crown Court after she had been found Letby guilty of murdering seven babies, and guilty of attempting to murder six others during her time working at the hospital.It means she will never be released from prison.
The consultant said he believed he was 'following procedure' rather than speaking out as a whistleblower when he and other colleagues first raised their concerns. "I think our experiences aren't uncommon in the NHS. You go to a senior colleague with a problem and you come away confused and anxious because that problem is being turned in a way in which you start to realise they are seeing you as a problem rather than the concern that you have.
