The need to conduct reviews into the care of nine babies at a Galway maternity unit raises questions about the impact of previous reviews there into similar concerns, the Association for Improvements in Maternity Services (AIMS) Ireland has said.

The HSE says individual reviews into care of nine babies are running at Portiuncula University Hospital’s maternity unit. It is understood the hospital will look for any common issues arising from the separate findings.
