NRH should just do the basics

It has been called a butchery or slaughter house because of the popular belief that it is a death place and not a cure facility. The service provision is sub-standard and generally not befitting the intended status of a facility of the NRH calibre. There are many reported cases denoting negligence by the hospital staff.

The common excuse by the hospital management for rendering below par service has always been a flimsy one. The NRH say their service level is compromised by the fact that patients choose to overcrowd the hospital’s Accident and Emergency wing, instead of using clinics in their wards. It is the umpteenth time we carry a story of negligence by the facility in this edition.
