#1: - Terrible to think that they are willing to send mothers home after just 6 hours. This trial is a farce, a simple money saving exercise. When you see the terrible wastage that occurs in the NHS from the inside, with a huge management team, huge IT team, incompetent or unneeded staff "redeployed" rather than released and people paid salaries far in excess of midwifes to do stress awareness training and other useless jobs it beggars belief. This scheme will, in the long term, cause more problems as children with perhaps milder disabilities will be missed and early support which is so important will not be given, perhaps until too late.
