An octogenarian who was involved in a motorcycle accident last month was forced to seek medical attention at a private hospital after she was sent away, without being treated, from the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH) where she had been transferred to undergo emergency surgery.
Speaking to Stabroek News yesterday, Maria Montouth, daughter of 84-year-old Carmel DeSouza of Lot 532 Determa Street, Mackenzie, Linden said her mother was involved in a motorcycle accident during last month which resulted in her sustaining a fractured ankle.
DeSouza was rushed to the Linden Hospital Complex where her injured foot was examined by a doctor.
