If you want to make a complaint or give feedback
You may have questions about your care that were not answered by any review or investigation. You may just want to give your feedback about aspects of your care which were good. To help you do this, we have some support for families.
More information about reviews
When a baby dies, hospitals carry out a review of the care the mother and baby received to understand if more could have been done to save the baby. Some deaths are also investigated by bodies independent of the NHS.
