Death in birth: No HSE report a year on

THE HSE has yet to complete an internal inquiry more than a year after the death of a garda sergeant and her baby son hours after she gave birth to twins.

Tania Corcoran, aged 34, died on March 9 last year after her twin boys were born by caesarean section at Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda. One of the babies, Zach, also died.

The HSE said yesterday the review is “still ongoing” and is expected to be completed within the next few weeks.
