Linden maternal death…Minister of Health,Carl Yastrzemski Red Sox Throwback Jersey, Leslie Ramsammy,Larry Johnson Chiefs Throwback Jersey, has said that Chief Medical Officer for Region Ten has to make recommendations into the death of maternal patient,Tom Waddle Bears Throwback Jersey, Tricia Winth,Barry Sanders Lions Throwback Jersey, before the Ministry takes over the matter.The Minister further stated that it was not customary for intern doctors to look at patients and nurses to administer drugs. He noted that an investigation must be launched into why that occurred.He also said that if the senior doctors knew that they would not have been at the hospital they should have made contact with the consultants.According to Dr. Ramsammy,Brett Favre Falcons Throwback Jersey, the problem is being feverishly rectified and would not reoccur.The report into Tricia Winth’s death found that she was left with hospital interns while a nurse was the one administering drugs.The Regional Health Officer, Pansy Armstrong,Randy White Cowboys Throwback Jersey, had subsequently sought to ascertain why the patient was left with two unsupervised interns and why had a nurse been the one deciding what drugs had to be administered to the patient.In her report, Armstrong also questioned why a senior doctor wasn’t at the Linden Hospital Complex at the time.The report also asked why the hospital’s Chief Medical Officer is never around.The investigating team consisted of the Regional Health Officer,Rick Martin Sabres Throwback Jersey, Deputy Regional Executive Officer,Chuck Howley Cowboys Throwback Jersey, the Hospital’s Matron and a Retired Public Health Nurse.Statements were taken from the husband of the deceased,Shaquille O Neal Cavaliers Throwback Jersey, Euibio Winth, the night supervisor at the hospital, the medical superintendent and various nurses on shift at the time of the woman’s death.The patient died while arrangements were being made for her to be transferred to the Georgetown Hospital. |
