Residents of Region Six yesterday held a picketing exercise outside of the New Amsterdam Public Hospital, in an effort to let their frustrations over poor conditions and delivery of services at the facility be heard.
The visibly upset residents yesterday made calls for the immediate resignation of the Director of Health Services of Region Six, Jevaughn Stephens and CEO of the Hospital, Samantha Kennedy, since according to the protestors, both officials seem inexperienced to be in the posts they are in.
Last week, members of the public had complained about new procedures at the hospital and long waiting times.
