Following severe criticism of conditions at the Skeldon Hospital, the Ministry of Health (MOH) yesterday said it is working to place more nurses at the facility with two additional doctors placed at the location as of Friday.
The ministry’s response came eight days after a scathing letter from Jan Khan about conditions at the hospital and a September 25th editorial in Stabroek News.
Weeks earlier, on September 7th , the Regional Democratic Council of Region Six was informed that there was a shortage of doctors, nurses and even medication at the Skeldon Public Hospital.
