An ex-midwife from a maternity unit where 11 babies were judged to have died unnecessarily has been struck off over the deaths of two of them.
Marie Ratcliffe had admitted she « made mistakes » that contributed to the deaths of the two babies at Furness General Hospital.
Ms Ratcliffe accepted 68 charges relating to 14 patients.
The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) concluded the « only appropriate sanction » was a « striking off order ».
The panel said her actions, relating to a period between 2004 and 2013, were « fundamentally incompatible » with her remaining on the register.
