A high-level meeting is planned for today following yesterday’s ‘sit-in’ by physicians attached to the Accident and Emergency (A&E) department of the Skeldon Hospital, Region Six (East Berbice/ Corentyne), according to a release yesterday from the Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) .
The release said that the ‘sit-in’ didn’t disrupt operations in other parts of the hospital.
Alex Foster, the point person for the Public Health Ministry in Region Six said the A&E physicians were upset that critical supplies were unavailable to treat their patients forcing them to take industrial action.
