I took my baby to the clinic because she was stooling and vomitting, she was admitted and she pooed, the poo stained the bedspread because the poo was watery. The Bedspread was changed by the nurse and the nurse told me that she will soak the bedspread for me to wash later. I declined, the nurse said that if there was no poo on it, the cleaner would have done it, mothers in the house, what do you think

Whether poo or no poo, its d job of d cleaner to wash n make dat everywher clean.
As 4 me, I'm not gonna wash anytin. Wat nonsense!

Op please provide the answer to the bolded.

No standard hospital will ever expect patients to clean up after themselves. Op, go and register in a better hospital.

Shebi its poo u were told 2 wash, ur own is good. A colleague of mine was told by d nurse 2 clean d bed in d labour room immediately after giving birth. D nurse dint even consider her weak state, d nurse stood 2 1 side n started directing her. Oya come down, take ur wrapper, clean d bed. I almost cried 4 her wen she was telling me. Some nurses r terrible.

That is wrong. It is somebody's job to do it.
This only happens when people are allowed to behave as they like. It is only in a faulty system that you have to beg people to do what they are supposed to do and the superiors don't even do anything about it.

B4 you guys hang nurses try to look for the definition of nurses by Florence Nightingale and varginal handerson and you will know that all.who you guys are calling nurses are just auxiliary trainned by hungry drs who cannot afford registered practitioners.
Use govt or standard hosp and you will know the value of nurses .
NOTE: in all profession there is always the bad egg.

These happens when you visit a substandard, backyard hospital that can't afford to employ enough hands to do the jobs. Even some underfunded government hospitals or health centres do this, it is quite unfortunate though.

Coming to the action of the nurse, someone has to be blamed and they being at the forefront of health care most bear the blame. Improvise is the watchword for Nigerian health teams, even patients and their relatives has been used times without numbers as either cook, cleaner, ambulance driver, NGO or welfare official to other patients, porter or mortuary attendants

So true. I had a neighbour that carried his gen from his house to the hospital when his kids were admitted cos the hospital was using candles that night. Incredible but true.
