Case Studies

Here, we detail two case studies about turning off life support in infancy. In both cases, the doctors and parents disagreed over which action was best for the child and so the case went to court.

In this case study, where a child died under Dr Bawa-Garba’s supervision, we compare blame culture and just culture to determine who is truly at fault.

Scandals

This includes the Stafford hospital scandal and the Shropshire maternity scandal, both of which are infamous for there appalling conditions of care.

This page discusses the Andrew Wakefield scandal where Wakefield et al spread misinformation about the MMR Vaccine. We also outline the duty of scientists to ensure validity and repeatability.
