The government converted workers on contract to posts, so the overall staff personnel never changed. Most medical services are still understaffed.
Posting the 1 CT machine that KPH has and making seem like everything is well is disingenuous, when a major hospital, that admits 20K patient per year require at least 3 scanners. Not to mention that scanner has to serve the Bustamante hospital and the entire region (and island) in the case of emergencies. The machine is over worked and will be out of commission soon.
The MRI machine has been out of commission for over 10 years and has been demagnetized because some smart person placed a metal container on top of the building that houses it.
Only 7 adult ICU bed at a type A hospital (that serves the entire island), when the recommended ratio is 20% of total bed capacity.
I cannot for the life of me understand why we have a Minister of Health that hates healthcare workers. What is the point? The only time that man has ever said a kind word to us is during Covid when we risked our lives daily. He takes every chance to vilify us. Stop it man
