Clifton Health Center |
It is
conventional wisdom that corruption poses a huge challenge to a healthcare
system. When public officials adopt policies for winning the next election
instead of providing systems and policies to benefit the public interest the
people suffer and die.
The recent
discussion regarding the inefficiency of the X-Ray service at the PMH Hospital
is just one example where economic and political decisions become twisted. We woke
up this morning to the news that a young man from the Cottage Constituency by
the name of Marley was found dead outside a health center in the village of Clifton.
Marley suffered
from a mental condition and was taken to the Portsmouth hospital for treatment
yesterday afternoon Monday August 14. He was treated and brought back to the
cottage constituency but shortly after he was brought back to his place of
residence he again complained of discomfort but this time the ambulance dropped
him off in the evening at the health center in the village of Clifton. We have
been informed that at the time the young man was dropped off at the Health
center the staff was not available and so the ambulance service left the young
man outside the health center. This morning the young man was found dead at the
same spot in front the health center.
Many would like
us to look the other way and not blame the healthcare system just because their
political party gets negative attention. We need to stop behaving like we can
find solutions by pretending like our problems don’t exist. Higher corruption
is associated with poor health outcomes- with poorly trained staff, inadequate
facilities and equipment.
Family and
concerned villagers are seeking answers to many questions this morning.
Why was the health center closed?
Where the nurse or nurses was at the time the young man
was dropped off?
Did the ambulance service contact the health
professional?
Why the ambulance service left the young man outside the
health center unattended?
We have become
so self-centered that we have worked ourselves into just getting what we want
only. It is astonishing that foolish party loyalty and an
adopted attitude of selfishness can prevent a people from having “eyes that
see” and “ears that hear.” We hope that as the people of the Cottage
constituency attempt to find the answers this morning that they will come to
understand the need for better healthcare and to hold their government and
representative accountable.
would they have treated someone with prestige this way or would they have brought them back to the hospital on finding out there was no health care assistant available at the time i find this to be very fishy something wrong somewhere i smell a rat this is high way cruelty so sad tears tears tears my god if this is true he was a human being just like the paramedics that dropped him off n left him there my heart is broken i wonder if this is true n if its true if he had some kinda big surname would that have happened to him god is looking down ppl.
ReplyDeleteIf what i'm reading on here is true, the ambulance personel are totally irresponsible and responsible for the man's death,they should be held accountable!If the police and relevant authorities fail to take action against the ambulance personnel,the family of the man should take action! What an island of incompetent rogues!!!
ReplyDeleteHow about you find out why the fire officer didn't contact the nurse on call or if he did why wasn't he attended to instead of you stupid people blaming the government every time?
ReplyDeleteReally low class stuff. The professionals who are supposed to administer service to clients don't care at all. The Health and Ambulance Services should be held totally responsible for their unprofessional, uneducated, low standard bullshit of a service. High time somebody pays for these kinds of attitudes. And for those nasty folks who include politics in every thing I say to you stop making unfounded, misleading and unfactual statements about Parl Reps and Government. Total bullshit as well these institutions should do their work since they are paid to do it.
ReplyDelete" I'm estatic with the service, especially with the friendly staff and the reassuring attitude offered when needed.best price invisalign treatment
