SeeWahala:It's totally stoopid talk. Don't mind the werey. I've been at LASUTH one midnight like that (we rushed a family member there) a not more than 13yr old was unfortunate enough to get wounded by stray bullets. The eediots refused to treat him without police reports. It was another older person that was also shot that was now fighting them. We couldn't take it and got involved, we sent someone to get police report and stood as a mob forcing them to administer treatment to both injured. We had to stay there until police arrived as we assured the medical staffs of us being witnesses to the event. That was two lives we saved that midnight. The police are at fault for this, but allow me to also blame all involved for letting themselves be intimidated by an unlawful practice of the Nigerian police. Baba Buhari even condemned such nonsense and I thought a law was enacted to stop the practice of waiting for police report before treatment? What a chaotic country, everybody just dey do as they like... SMH |

immortalcrown:This is the Federal Medical Center. No excuses suffice, and as the Good Samaritan said, it’s not about the nurses but bringing the situation to the attention of the minister Meanwhile police report is not needed for a road traffic accident and not even needed for all kinds of scenarios for that matter. The police has been shouting this for a long time |

Zero empathy. Zero coordination. Zero leadership. See how sluggish and unconcerned they all were. It is a shame really. They should all lose their license and never be allowed to practice Nursing again |

immortalcrown:Did you watch the video,she said it's not her Duty. She didn't refuse to help.And she's right,it's the duty of the porters. I'm a doctor and porters are the ones that lift sick and injured patients to hospital wards. It's not the nurse or doctor's duty. |

ruggedtimi:I myself have been arrested by the police for managing a stab wound victim who was brought in by 11pm. Unfortunately these Nigerians are quick to blame us cos they love to castigate doctors and nurses,instead of blaming the corrupt system. It is well. We are leaving you guys |

SeeWahala:Do you know the number of doctors arrested by your corrupt police for treating gunshot/stab wound patients? Dey dia dey run mouth. So because we want to save lives we should get into police custody? |

Even in advanced countries it is not the job of nurses to bring in accidents victims into the hospital, let us learn how to do things properly for once. An ambulance with EMT personnel will bring an accident victim into the ER while calling ahead to get the surgeon and supporting staffs ready if surgery is needed and stretcher the victim inside, not bringing an accident victim in your private car and shouting on a Nurse a female nurse to do what exactly, carry the man on her back ? |

immortalcrown:baba haba , this isn't the reason for the discuss if the man is willing to pay.payment wasn't the issue but the idea that no one came to bring the patient down from the car and there are porters in the hospital meant to do that work and should be on stand by to attend to such patients. Immediately the man told the ladies they were on camera , u notice they started doing the right thing in reverse mode. |

There is no hospital where a doctor is responsible for carrying a patient into the hospital. You can blame the person's responsible for not being around but certainly not the doctor. That woman is the doctor. The man doing video is very dramatic she never said she was not going to treat the patient. This narrative is just out of anger. |

SeeWahala:Maybe if you see the other side then you will understand. My dad was a General Surgeon. Had one of his patients die post-op. The family stormed the hospital to beat him up for "killing" their brother. Patient that had been trying all other means including fasting and prayer and only came to the hospital hanging on to life by a thread |

piriton:I just noticed she is a doctor on her name tag, what is the business of a doctor with bringing an accident victim into the hospital, so she is correct that is totally not her job. |

I have said it before that Nigerians are evíl people. Their hearts is filled with so much evíls, lies, dishonesty and all sorts of atrocities. Take this from me. A pagan is holier than some of these people parading themselves as Christians. Repent now of all your evíl acts before it's too late. I am sounding this to you cuz I am sick and tired of people acting like animals and being so inhumane in this modern day. Even with all the different abnormal things happening everyday, it's not enough for you as a person to keep your hands clean? Instead, you are still committing and thinking life is all there is. Committing is not only about those that kill. Deflating your neighbor car tyre is evíl. Going around spoiling your neighbor's name is evil, going about stealing people's things is evíl, acting jealous and envious of your neighbor cuz he or she bought a car is evil, and different kinds of acts. Search your heart if it is truly pure. There is prize for every evil act you commit just in case you don't know. One day monkey will go to the market and won't return. Keep your hands clean and stay away from evil acts. Anyone you can think of. You might not be that lucky always if you keep on commiting. Don't waste your soul away cuz you want to practice evil doings. |

[quote author=Jonathan post=135677104]This is exactly how most of these Unfortunate medical staff behave. Very careless, reckless and negligent. They always complain about salary, whereas doctors are the most paid civil servants relatively, and other medical staff are paid high too compared to other civil servants.[/quote Most paid doesn't equate to wealth, If you compare the amount of hours put into work medical staff (doctors, nurses, laboratory scientists etc) are underpaid. Besides we need to hear the nurses reason for rejecting or refusing to attend to the patient before concluding. |

Very sad situation! Why are the nurses so heartless . They get paid every month yet refused to do their duties. They should be sacked for the sacrilegious act . When health workers no longer have sympathy for sick ,what are they doing in their profession again. There should be mass purging in that hospital.. |

SeeWahala:so she should sacrifice her life for someone else ![]() You are saying this because youve not experienced such. It's the likes of you that encourage patient relatives beating up medical staff whenever their relative dies. |

immortalcrown:Don't try to justify nonsěnsê, if you were the victim you wouldn't be typing this. That was an emergency and every second is critical. Their oath of profession is to save life... Save that life and reason consequence later. |

Nigeria is such a disgraceful and heart-wrenching country. We are just bunch of over 200million fools! We will keep running all over the world with little or nothing achieved. Such a useless country! Sometimes, one would wish one was not a Nigerian. An individual brings accident victims to an FMC, if it was a private hospital, they could make a case for it but this is a Federal Hospital that is run with tax payers' money. Later they will say pay ground rent, this rent, that tax and all sorts of taxes that are unaccounted for. This video will be seen all over the world and when outsiders treat us like animals, we start to fume as if we were better than that. |

I don’t blame the nurse; within the nursing specialization, there are various areas of expertise. While she may be working in the accident and emergency department, her actions highlight the failing healthcare system, which reflects a lack of commitment from the current administration to revitalize the health sector. The accident victim was let down by the system, not by the nurse. Consider this: where are the paramedics on the scene? Who is the doctor on duty? What emergency plans and contingencies are in place to manage the financial implications in situations like this? Having worked in Nigeria's healthcare system and currently at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, I understand emergency situations better. I don’t blame the nurse; I blame the Nigerian system. It has failed its citizens. |
