The bottom line is management needs to listen to the people who know, and polictical agendas need to disappear. We need to focus on protecting the children and not the family. More people need to speak up, what if a doctor took responsiblity and ordered a full body scan for this poor child, would all his injuries have been visible. just looking at his hands, fingertips cut and the poor fingernails ripped out should have been a big flag. More management needs to work the trenches so to speak, follow a doctor around and see what they do before you dismiss their concerns. I say to err on the side of the child if there is any doubt of the child's safety. I have read a lot of whose to blame but no real solution seems to be present.

Concentrate on individuals and you get scapegoats. Focus on systems and you get solutions.

But in an area always studied in detail, there is a lesson: very often when an aeroplane crashes, there is not just one reason, but a series of individually minor problems linked together cause the crash - if any one of those problems ahd been remedied, the crash may well not have happened.
