Episode Summary

A pregnant woman, Jane, is brought in after an RTA. She is heavily bleeding, and Lara takes the decision over Patrick to deliver her baby in Resus. Her husband, James, who is a midwife, is angry when he hears what happened as he knows it’s not standard practice, and talks to Charlie. Lara stands up for her decision, saying if she didn’t go ahead, they would both have died – Dillon also backs her up. She defends herself to James, and Dillon eventually persuades him not to take further action.

Babysitter, Claire, brings in baby, Harry. X-rays shows old bruises, and Patrick notices a rash which diagnose meningitis. Claire thinks she will be blamed, when she sees Patrick talking with Sergeant [ID 388]Rachel[/ID], and runs off with Harry. Spencer and Patrick later find her in the hospital kitchens, and Patrick persuades her to return the child. Chloe realises Claire cannot have harmed him, as this was the first time she had babysat for him and the bruises were old.

Patrick has an interview for a Consultancy post, one of the panel is Max’s former colleague, Professor David Weinburg, who believes it’s ‘not what you say but what you don’t say’.

In the staff room, Lara has champagne ready to celebrate, but Patrick receives a call saying he didn’t get the job on his lack of patient communication.
