@AbkaFitzHenley@Nationwideradio Please send happy birthday greetings to my daughter Dr. Lori Ann Vaz at the UHWI. From mom Dawn, brother Jason and the rest of the family.
Jamaica please speak out we must stop this before it is too late. I am personally close to the situation and know this as a fact. I am happy the doctors are finally speaking out.@emilymshields
@christufton@cliffnationwide@AbkaFitzHenley Dr Tufton your intervention is urgently needed at the UHWI specifically the Residency Programme. Doctors are working 24 seven in some programs without eating and sleeping for days. This is untenable and cannot continue.

@emilymshields I asked you to use the platform you have to SAVE these young doctors because their superiors are heartless and uncaring and are quick to victimize the doctors by failing them on their study rotation if they complain. Jamaica please speak out against this atrocity.
@emilymshields Emily now you have proven that what I tweeted you about last week is indeed true. You promised to follow up the matter, however you did not say anything more on it.
@emilymshields Thanks for your intervention and for reading my concerns on air, as a Lawyer this is something that should concern to you as well. The doctors need your voice and your platform to bring the matter to public attention. A culture change is needed now to save them.
@emilymshields Emily this is something I know of a fact happening a UWI. The conversation must be started now. Do Labour Laws in Jamaica relate to our medical doctors? How can one expect doctors to be on call for 7 days straight, work to 5am and be up and back on the job at 8am
@emilymshields Please Emily the situation with the Junior doctors has reached critical proportion and more doctors may die, they are being over worked. I am calling on Dr Tuffton to investigate what is happening at the UWI in the programme. Emily please investigate to save them.
@emilymshields I am calling on the parents and spouses of these doctors who know what is happening in the system to come out and start the conversation because the doctors are afraid to speak because of victimization and failure of their rotation.
@emilymshields Emily a junior doctor in the advance consultant training programme at the UWI called me on Tuesday in tears frustrated because for about four days straight she got little sleep no breakfast no lunch because she had no time to eat and she cannot dear to complain.
@emilymshields Good morning Emily I have been trying to call you from Tuesday August 111, 2020 to tell you about the slavery condition under which the Junior Doctors are working in Jamaica. I was not surprise that news came of an intern dying on the job on Thursday.
