Glasgow child services criticised

A review prompted by the death of a 14-week-old baby girl has uncovered a series of failings by child protection services in Glasgow.

The baby, identified as Child A, died in hospital in March 2015. The child was found in a home strewn with dirty nappies and drug paraphernalia. A significant case review said communication failures led to deficiencies in the care provided by child protection services. Leaders at Glasgow Health and Social Care Partnership said they would address concerns raised in the review.
