\n Shannon Andrews said: \u201cGroup B Strep should be a routine check!\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\n Jayde Harris said: \u201cThis is heart wrenching to hear and the saddest part till this day they are still not taking group B strep serious enough!\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\n Julie Heard said: \u201cAbsolutely heartbreaking. Sadly, this hospital never seems to learn from their mistakes, speaking as a family on the receiving end of misdiagnosis, our lives changed, it\u2019s just devastating.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\n Derek Rutland said: \u201cThis is so so sad, no money can make that kid well again.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cBut lack of staff and a hospital that is to small for the number of people it has to\u00a0serve and as more and more homes are going up in Swindon this sort of thing will 100 per cent happen again and again.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cThe hospital needs to be made bigger or a second hospital has to be built and built fast as this hospital is not fit for purpose and was not fit for purpose when it opened years ago.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cIt was well smaller than the old hospital and Swindon was well smaller than it is now. You see waiting times of up to eight plus hours and wait for a bed for 12-plus hours.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cI wish all the best to the child and family and hope they all live well and safe life and hope this never happens again.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

I fought and pushed hard, they eventually did bloods after his jaundice test came back highly positive and told me his infection markers were at 47!\n<\/p>\n \n \u201cHe ended up having antibiotics and two lumber punctures! He was treated for sepsis.\n<\/p>\n \n \u201cI didn\u2019t sue, I just wanted those midwives in charge of our care to be put on an extra training course because I didn’t want this happening to others.\u201d\n<\/p>\n \n Karen Symmonds said: \u201cBig problems at this hospital.\u201d\n<\/p>\n \n Ron Burberry said: \u201cVery poor hospital.\u201d\n<\/p>\n \n Terry Kissinger said: \u201cPeople voted for the cheapest option for health and education.\n<\/p>\n
