The Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) Board has recommended that Matron Collene Hicks be sent on administrative leave to facilitate a probe into allegations against her.
Chairman of the GPHC Board Dr. Max Hanoman told a press conference yesterday that anything that affects patient care will have to be addressed.
Hanoman pointed out that the hospital appears to have a crisis between the doctors and nurses and it has been recommended that the matron be placed on administrative leave, with full benefits, so that a full investigation could be launched into the basis of the claims.
