Fort Wellington Hospital is lacking

Nov 25, 2011 Letters

Dear Editor,
I, a loyal citizen of Guyana, wish to inform you or give a complaint on what is happening in one of the hospitals in Berbice. That is the Fort Wellington Hospital. Firstly, my mom, for the past two to three months, has been going to the said hospital for dressing on one of her feet as she is suffering from high blood pressure and was using medication to control it.
One day her foot got a cut on the heel and it started to turn out badly and so she decided to go to the Fort Wellington Hospital to get it looked after.
After they cut it, she was going normally until November 16 of this year when she went back for dressing.
After going there for regular dressing the nurses would dress it. However on the said day, a doctor was present from the Georgetown Public Hospital and luckily he forwarded her immediately to Georgetown Public Hospital where they told her that her foot was deteriorating, that it was beginning to rot.
If it weren’t for that doctor we would not have known that my mother’s foot was rotting.
I think it is safe to say that the persons working at the Fort Wellington Hospital know not what they are doing because they did not tell us that until we spoke to the Georgetown doctor.
A concerned and dissatisfied citizen
