What the flying fuck
It's like something out of some sick comedy sketch. Except with actual human suffering.
I wish it was.
it's common for doctors in private practice to have privileges at local hospitals to practice, see patients, perform procedures, surgeries, etc.
part of that doctor's service fee is paid to the hospital for this privilege.
I love that they are going with the "it's not the OB's fault and even if it were, they don't work for us." That guide is actually worse than if they just denied it was their fault. What they admitted is that they admitted a woman who was in labor and did not assign a doctor to her but instead let a random woman help deliver and decapitate the baby. That is a systemic issue and clearly the people managing the hospital should be named from operating any hospital ever again.
I can't think of a more appropriate response.
Keep in mind that decapitation doesn't mean the head was removed from the body.
The article indicates that it was full separation
...
It most certainly does not.
Wait... What? I swear the article previously said the torso was removed via c section and the head vaginally... I'm confused.
Edit: I forgot I read it in the article linked in this thread by @stopthatgirl7@kbin.social instead of the OP article.
In this case, it was: “According to the complaint, the baby’s legs and torso were delivered through the C-section incision without the head. The baby’s head was then delivered vaginally.”

Well that's the most traumatic thing I've read today.
Yes, it actually by definition does. An internal decapitation doesn't mean the head was removed, but a decapitation does mean the head was removed from the body. That's how the terminology works.
The two are often used interchangeably by journalists, which is why the reminder is necessary.
According to the linked article (which is not a good article) it was internal decapitation, although another source says it was a complete separation.
