30 charges proved in Cumbrian midwife's disciplinary hearing
The panel was told that Ms Warwick was pushing the infant in a plastic cot on a metal frame when it slid off and fell on the floor, the Nursing and Midwifery Council heard.
Warwick also risked electrocuting a woman in labour in a birthing pool,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], by using equipment to monitor the baby heartbeat that was plugged in at the mains.
On another occasion she used another bed-bound patient deodorant for her armpits and polished her shoes with body wipes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The incidents occurred while the midwife was working in the maternity unit at West Cumberland Hospital,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The midwife said she dropped the baby, on September 1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 2005, arguing there were different accounts of what happened.
But NMC panel chair,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Andrew Coleman, said: have heard that Ms Warwick was pushing a baby on its cot on a metal frame.
she approached a door she pulled the cot inside the metal frame and it slipped up and off the frame,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
of the cot fell on the floor and the baby fell flat down on its face.
panel accepts the cause of the accident was carelessness. was cleared of failing to leave the hospital immediately after she dropped the baby,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as the panel ruled there was insufficient evidence to prove she was told to go straight away.
Horrified staff discovered Warwick with a woman in a birthing pool room using CTG monitoring equipment plugged into an electric socket just two feet away.
She should have been using a handheld battery-powered aqua sonic aid, the panel ruled.
Warwick grabbed deodorant from inside another female patient bag while she was recovering from a caesarean section at the hospital, on April 12 to 13.
She also placed incontinence pads on the woman legs while she was in bed and used body wipes to clean her shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The midwife,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], representing herself, denied spraying the aerosol on her armpits.
The woman made a verbal complaint about Warwick behaviour and the NMC panel ruled it was unlikely this allegation was invented,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Warwick was cleared of saying she had not applied deodorant that day.
The midwife also held her face just six inches from another pregnant woman and bellowed later repeated the same behaviour,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], despite being told it was unacceptable, forcing a senior colleague to poke her from behind to stop her.
Warwick also failed to inform bosses that she was unfamiliar with various birth equipment and procedures, resulting in her missing two blood pressure readings.
She admitted failing to demonstrate the necessary skill to perform without supervision after she did not complete a return to practice course at St Martin College in Cumbria between May 16,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 2005, and April 25,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 2006.
Warwick, of Whitehaven,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Cumbria,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], claimed the NMC had treated her unfairly, describing the tribunal process as a compared her case to the investigation into the Derrick Bird shootings, saying: Cumbria there was a shooting by a taxi driver that case had many scenes and each one was carefully examined by the police. That process should have been required of the NMC. I would have been better off in a magistrates court. The case against me is fundamentally flawed.
