Wednesday, March 22, 2006'The hospital actually requires at least 300 nurses but we have been making do with 162 nurses of whom one-third are not available for various reasons. We need more people to look after the 1,200-odd inpatients and to work in the labour rooms, theatre and specialty clinics. Now that the elections have been declared, we are not allowed to get even temporary hands from the employment exchange,' says a hospital staff. Because of staff shortage and non-availability of anaesthetist, the second operation table at the emergency theatre at SAT hospital has remained non-functional for the past three months. The table had initially been allotted to reduce the waiting period for C-section deliveries. posted by Sydney on 3/22/2006 08:02:00 PM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
