Locals demand restoration of the glory of NTRH
By The Mountain Journal
Two health workers have been interdicted at Nanyuki Teaching and Referral Hospital following the alleged neglect of patients under their care.
The management of the facility interdicted the staff at the laboratory department where Halima Hassan 58 died while waiting to be served after being referred by a clinician who was examining her.
Health chief Officer Dr Donald Mogoi regretted the Monday incident saying in depth investigations have been instituted.
“The management of the hospital acknowledges the incident and two members of staff who were working in the laboratory interdicted,” said Mogoi.
The chief officer spoke after residents of Nanyuki demonstrated calling on Governor Ndiritu Muriithi to restore the dignity of the health facility by disciplining the rogue health workers.
The protest was accelerated following claims that Jane Njoki died at the same facility following neglect by the members of staff attending a birthday party for their colleague in one of the ward.
