Ankaful Nurses abandon patients; begin sit down strike
Staff of the Ankaful Psychiatric Hospital have abandoned inmates as they begin a sit down strike.
They are furious over the refusal of the Health Minster to sack
their Medical Director, Dr. Eugene Dordoye whom they accuse of being
corrupt and having poor human relations and managerial skills.
An ultimatum was given by the aggrieved staff after they rejected an apology from their boss expired last night.
Secretary for the Psychiatric Nurses at the Ankaful Psychiatric
Hospital, Malcom Ali told Starr News that they have also suspended
admission of new patients.
“Its rather unfortunate because we don’t know what will happen to
them, there was an emergency meeting yesterday by management and all
in-charges of the various wards were told to bring patients for
discharge.
As at yesterday we had about 11 patients discharged, eight have gone home and the rest are waiting
for their relatives to come for them. We will come to work, write our
names but we will not do anything until our hospital director is removed
from the hospital.”
Meanwhile, the Health Ministry has invited leaders of the agitating workers for an emergency meeting over the impasse.
