Whistleblower

Back to winners

How did one junior midwife get the strength to blow the whistle and question the medical practice of a senior consultant, whose actions led to more than 100 women having unnecessary hysterectomies? Based on the Lourdes Hospital Inquiry of 2006, Whistleblower is a two-part RTÉ drama which brought this shocking story to the screen.
