The Regional Democratic Council of Region Six on Wednesday, heard that the Skeldon Public Hospital mortuary is presently not functioning, while the hospital’s landline phone is disconnected, since the bill is yet to be paid.
Regional Chairman, David Armogan, at the first statutory meeting for the year, on Wednesday told the council that he was informed that the mortuary has not been working for about three weeks now.
“The Skeldon mortuary has been out of operation because the freezer has not been working and people got issues now with storing the dead bodies,” he was quoted as saying.
