Baby P doctor accused of failing to spot tot's injuries "deeply affected" by case
The doctor, who was supposed to check on Baby P while he was still living at home with his parents, seems to have made a huge mistake. Baby P visited her just before he died, but the doctor did not see he was suffering from a broken back and ribs. She states in a report that:”he was miserably and cranky” so she was not able to inspect the boy any further. The doctor has been terminated and banned from working unsupervised until the case gets investigated. The doctor is very shocked about all this.

When I first heard about Baby P and the things he went through, I was completely in shock. The authorities who were supposed to look after this boy, all failed miserably. These last weeks it all seems like they are looking for the person responsible for all this. I personally believe there are many more persons responsible, not just one doctor or a social worker. The reason why it went wrong is because all the authorities did not cooperate. If they would have talked about this boy with each other he would be put in a home, far away from his parents. Then this would not have happened.

nstead of finding somebody to blame for the death of baby P, the United Kingdom should focus on the bigger issue: the communication between the health authorities. This way, they can prevent these cases to happen in the future.
