We have had a number of issues whereby staff have recorded incorrect birthweights. often due to transposing digit ie 3920g as opposed to 3290g! To help reduce errors we are asking mothers to review and sign the birth and PN transfer document. however most of our mothers prefer lbs & oz and are not easily identifying the errors when only there is only a metric measurement.
Therefore please record imperial measurement after the metric
