Wrong baby feared at Crown Street Hospital warns fixes
Matron Shaw says misidentification cannot occur and outlines steps at Crown Street Women’s Hospital Sydney. Upon delivery, Letti Baby is tagged immediately with name and sex on a cardboard tag. A nurse writes the baby’s details, and a doctor or senior nurse verifies the tag before transfer. Indelible ink name tapes are applied to both wrists and remain until discharge, with a card displaying the baby’s name and set attached to each wrist.
