What Really Transpired At Rauf Aregbesola Health Centre Egbeda by tmeizzy(f): 7:31am On Nov 11, 2015 |
In a bid to set the records straight and redeem
the reputation of Nigerian Nurses, a source who
has chosen to remain annonymous has disclosed
what actually transpired at the Rauf Aregbesola
Health Centre in Egbeda, Alimosho Local
Government Area of Lagos.
You would recall that last week, the PUNCH
Newspaper had published an article titled
"Maternal Tragedy: Mother, child die looking for
doctors". In this article, PUNCH Newspaper had
maliciously defamed and callously painted "black,
incompetent and unprofessional; the Nurses who
work at the Rauf Aregbesola Health Centre in
Egbeda.
In a swift reaction, a nurse jude chiedu
had written an article in solidarity with our
colleagues at the Rauf Aregbesola Health Center.
He also condemned the article by the PUNCH as
lacking a factual balance in its reporting.
In a volte-face and confirmation of threat of legal
action against PUNCH Newspaper, the page has
been removed. The article no longer exists on the
punch website as the link to the offending
publication /1WBuiDR doesnt open again.
The fact that PUNCH Newspaper has taken down
the offensive and derogatory publication is a
confirmation to the info by our source that the
LCDA has initiated a legal redress against punch as
the story was not investigated at either the PHC
or council. According to our source, the Ministry of
Health is on the case.
Here is what actually transpired according to an
unnamed source to NursingworldNigeria.com
The woman was a booked case of the PHC but she
went to deliver in a church where she was
mismanaged. The church apparently had no facility
to cope with Emergency obstetric care (EmOC).
The baby was dead on arrival at the PHC.
The woman had 2nd degree tear and was bleeding.
The Nursing officer stitched her up and set up an
I.V. line.
She applied anti shock garment and used her
vehicle to take her to Igando General Hosptial as
the Ambullance was faulty and recently repaired
when the story broke out.
At the GH, they didn't want to admit her but the
Nurse visited the Apex who prevailed on others to
create a bed space for her.
They put up a second IV line at the GH and
commenced her management while her blood was
collected for confirmation of her grouping and
cross matching.
She was treated for shock.
The Nurse even paid for some of the initial
treatment requested for at the GH since the
husband said he has no money on him.
The woman was still alive before the Nurse left,
but the fact is that she had already lost a lot of
blood.
Nursingworld sincerely appreciates this source for
sharing this information and we promise to bring
our readers more details as the case unfolds. We
commend the LCDA for taking the fight to redeem
our public image which the news media has
consistently dented and rubbished. |

Quite unfortunate the woman died, may her soul RIP. The public is always vindictive once stories like this get to the media, without further findings of the true story ( or @ least hear from the accused). |
