Minister of Health, Dr. Frank Anthony yesterday assured that action will be taken against those found at fault in the death of Vanessa Lewis-Sahadeo, the Corentyne mother who succumbed last Saturday morning after an unsuccessful delivery at the New Amsterdam Public Hospital.

During his contribution to the budget debate yesterday, Anthony told members of the National Assembly that following news of the death an investigation was immediately launched and the team has since completed the investigation. “And when I get those recommendations we will take action against the nurses and doctors and whoever is at fault in that unfortunate death,” he said.
