An HSIB report is a maternity investigation, designed to make maternity care safer. Every year, the HSIB undertakes approximately 1,000 maternity safety investigations.

HSIB investigations are independent in that they do not investigate on behalf of families, staff, organisations or regulators.

Part of the current HSIB remit is to investigate the safety of maternity services in the NHS as part of a national action plan to improve safety and reduce the number of stillbirths, neonatal and maternal deaths, and brain injuries.

HSIB will look into all clinical aspects of the incident and gather evidence. They will also interview anyone relevant to a case, which will generally include the patient, their family and NHS staff and clinicians, and will provide a written report once their investigations are concluded. The Investigations focus on learning and not attributing blame. A family who has suffered negligent care during maternity and birth does not have to wait for a completed HSIB report to instruct a solicitor.

If you have received a HSIB report, it would be prudent to seek legal advice even if the HSIB concludes there’s no findings, as safety recommendations are not necessarily indicative of medical negligence.
