Suddie and Charity hospital mistreat Amerindian patients

Aug 26, 2017 Letters

Dear Editor,
Channel 8 RCA TV, Charity hosts a programme every Thursday night “Your Community and You”. The programme of 24th August, 2017, highlighted the inhospitable treatment meted out to patients at both the Suddie and Charity Public Hospitals. The host specifically mentioned that Amerindians coming from the deep riverain areas to seek medical attention are often given the royal run around. The host posited that this was an indictment against the staff of these two hospitals for treating Amerindians in such a disrespectful, rude and rough manner. In one incident, a family was told when they arrived at one of the hospitals that they came too late. Hence they were not looked at. In a passionate and emotional manner, the host requested that the doctors and nurses of the hospitals to be more sympathetic and courteous to the Amerindians and the public at large.
