The Practise of Removing Newborn Babies by Nurses when the Mother hasn't even passed the Placenta

Details

Category: Legislation and Acts

Created: Sunday, 23 January 2011 08:10

Written by Alecomm

We would like to analyse the hospitals involved, the nursing staff and their "what seems to be" blatant lying on risk of harm reports. Risk of Harms for lack of antenatal care when there have been no pregnancy complications.

* What reasons did they have for taking your baby?
* Did they remove your baby and cut the cord whilst the placenta was still intact (meaning interferring with the natural birth)?
* Did they leave you haemhorraing and take your baby?

* Were the hospital staff rude?
* Did they deny you medical attention ie curette to prevent the haemhorraging OR breastfeeding to help uterus contract back to normal?
* Did they leave you in pain?

* Did they put you back into the maternity ward after they removed your child?  Etc

All these things are common practise for these so-called nurses.

The other main reason for this topic is to also work out specific angles of attack for the forthcoming class action against docs and health services for these gross breaches of the babies basic human rights and the mothers also.

Written by Alecomm

(1)  This Act is to be administered under the principle that, in any action or decision concerning a particular child or young person, the safety, welfare and well-being of the child or young person are paramount.

(2)  Subject to subsection (1), the other principles to be applied in the administration of this Act are as follows:

(a)  Wherever a child or young person is able to form his or her own views on a matter concerning his or her safety, welfare and well-being, he or she must be given an opportunity to express those views freely and those views are to be given due weight in accordance with the developmental capacity of the child or young person and the circumstances.

(b)  In all actions and decisions made under this Act (whether by legal or administrative process) that significantly affect a child or young person, account must be taken of the culture, disability, language, religion and sexuality of the child or young person and, if relevant, those with parental responsibility for the child or young person.

(c)  In deciding what action it is necessary to take (whether by legal or administrative process) in order to protect a child or young person from harm, the course to be followed must be the least intrusive intervention in the life of the child or young person and his or her family that is consistent with the paramount concern to protect the child or young person from harm and promote the child’s or young person’s development.
