Whilst we are delighted with the progress we have made so far with our Baby Hip Health Campaign but the big problem is that the Trusts do not have to adopt the policies.    In addition there is an ongoing issue with the GPs who operate as contractors and a not required to show their competency for a) carrying out the examination b) awareness of the condition/ timings etc. which is why we still need your support.
