Their daughter Kate died avoidably in the trust's care in 2009.
Parents who received an "unreserved apology" from Shropshire's major hospitals trust say their only concerns are improvements to patient safety.Rhiannon Davies and Richard Stanton were speaking after the board of Shrewsbury & Telford Hospital NHS Trust yesterday confirmed, following critical findings of an independent report by Fiona Scolding KC.
It also found that the board did not do enough to look at the reasons an independent report into maternity care at the trust was not published immediately after it was produced. But it was held until the following year while the trust sought an 'addendum' to the report, having disagreed with its conclusions – Ms Scolding described the trust as trying to 'spin' the findings.
She added:"Mr. Stanton should not have been spoken over and his microphone should not have been switched off." "It comes back to those affected, those who live through the loss and the pain every day, trying to create change every day so that it does not affect other people, and fighting against a system that is so weighted against them."
Mr Stanton said the report had validated his concerns about the board's examination of the situation with the RCOG report.
