Elythron16zero4: what are u waiting 4. even at 100years you can start to be one so that when u are 106yrs God help u if there is no strike may be u will be 106+ b4 u can be a doctor and then start earning as you said they deserve it. I have said it on this platform doctors are not the most important and no profession can equally claim that. All work together to achieve success. I wonder what the doctors will use to treat/cure their patients if pharmacist withdraws all drugs or other allied heath workers fold their arms and allow them to do the job alone. Yet they think they are superman. None of the equipment used in the hospitals by the doctors were made by any of them; the engineers made them, i wonder what they can do if the equipment are not there yet they claim to be all and all. Na wa oh Pure jealousy!! Must u always use doctors for comparison |
Health / Re: we Didn’t Sack Resident Doctors; We Only Suspended Them’, The Federal Government by Sirgen05(m): 6:48pm On Aug 20, 2014 |
The report below is what you get when u appoint consultant pharmacists and nurses...... chaos and abuse!!!!! @Trusall, that's the problem we have in this clime!!! [quote]Report has it that the hornets’ nest was stirred when consultant nurses and pharmacists were appointed at UCH and other teaching hospitals, a development that did not go well with the doctors. According to the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCAN), the situation became unbearable when, “consultant nurses prevented surgeons, who performed surgical procedures on patients from inspecting the surgical wounds of their own patients.” In a press conference at Ibadan, the President of MDCAN, Dr Olusegun Ayodeji Oluwole narrated how a Consultant Plastic Surgeon was barred from reviewing the surgical wound he created post-operatively because a “Consultant Nurse” had reviewed the wound earlier and was satisfied with her findings. Also at the Nnamdi Azikwe University Teaching Hospital Awka, a “Consultant Pharmacist” was reported to have invaded the wards with his team, canceled patients’ prescriptions and demanded that a Consultant Cardiologist remove a key drug in an in-patient prescription, on grounds that the drug has some known adverse effects. On the heel of these developments, the NMA commenced an indefinite strike after issuing a 24-point demand to the government, one of which include the discontinuation of non- medical doctors as Directors and Consultants in a teaching hospital[/ quote] |

Divepen: I think it is, as you said earlier, exposure of these children that makes them go into it. Children learn fast from what they see you do, hear from you!! And innocently, they think it is how life should be lived!!! But it never end there, they go a step further to experiment it innocently, as observed!! So parents should watch it!! 2 Likes |
Health / Re: Pls Cure For Staph Aurens!!! by Sirgen05(m): 6:25am On Aug 18, 2014 |
Staph is not a disease, it's a bacterium that can exist safely in many part of the body. It can cause different diseases with different symptoms if it get to certain parts of the body! My advice is meet a doctor who will observe your symptoms and send u to appropriate laboratory investigations and subsequently treat you!!! What you have may not be staphylococcus infection!! Don't waste ur money that way, just follow it right!! Thanks. |
Health / Re: Government Vows Not To Recall Sacked Doctors by Sirgen05(m): 8:15am On Aug 17, 2014 |
Read for your good, not for your sympathy but to let u know more about the Nigerian doctor Slaves of the M.O.D, Exposé: Nigerian Ministry of Defence Owes Doctors and Interns Salaries For 6 Months There is a very sad situation affecting the brightest of our youngest minds. Medical doctors who were employed as House Officers and the interns in other paramedic disciplines undergoing their One-year compulsory training in the 5 Reference Hospitals under the Ministry of Defence, have not been paid their salaries since they were appointed 6 months ago! The hospitals involved in this scandal are: •The 68 Nigerian Army Reference Hospital, Yaba •Military Hospital, Lagos •44 NARHY, Kaduna •Nigerian Navy Reference hospital, Ojo •Nigerian Airforce Reference Hospital, Ikeja. Normal civil service practices stipulate that normally, interns and House Officers are not paid until 2 or 3 months after employment, but these doctors have been counting down the months since receiving their appointment letters in February (2014) with no hope of when they are even going to get paid. Various pleas to the authorities in their various hospitals have fallen on deaf ears as the doctors are always being told that their salaries are coming from the Ministry of Defence headquarters in Abuja. Letters delivered to the Ministry of Defence by the interns always go unanswered. To make matters worse, doctors in these 5 affected hospitals are not allowed to go on strike actions and they are the only government hospitals that have been working in full capacity during the strike action embarked on by the Nigerian Medical Association. The patient loads in these hospitals have tripled since the strike and the hospitals, especially the Army hospitals, have not paid a dime as compensation to these health workers who have been enslaved by the system they've found themselves in. The Ebola Threat Added to the myriads of troubles these doctors are facing already is the Ebola threat which arrived Nigeria with the entrance of the late Mr. Patrick Sawyer . The doctors are made to take General Outpatient calls, meaning that they are the first contact with all kinds of patients even when the hospitals have not provided any kind of protective gear for the doctors. All there is on ground, are the face masks and hand gloves which serve only minimal protective functions. The emergency rooms remain as broken down as those in any government hospital and with the heavy patient loads in these hospitals, it is almost impossible for doctors to observe proper precaution. These hospitals offer no form of insurance cover or hazard allowance for the increased health risks their doctors face daily. The situation appears to be most pathetic at the 68, Nigerian Army Reference Hospital in Yaba where doctors under anonymous sources have complained of been overworked and understaffed. While the Airforce base hospital in Ikeja is highly selective with the kind of patients the doctors attend to, the military hospital in Yaba (which is a next door neighbour to the Infectious Diseases Hospital where the Ebola patients are quarantined in Lagos) accepts all kinds of patients as the hospital has enjoyed a financial boost throughout the strike period. Bed of Corruption Dr. Orji (not real names) spoke of moving to Lagos from Enugu for his housemanship with all excitement but has been forced to depend on his aged parents to continue sending him money from their meagre pensions. “I thought that my life would be different now, but almost 7 months into my training, the medical students are better than me.” He continues, “My hospital (Yaba) makes millions daily from this strike but nobody has asked us doctors how we are faring. The other day, we were asked to pay 4,000 Naira for sanitation fees otherwise they would kick us out of the accommodation premises that were assigned to us. Where do they think the money will come from?” These appalling conditions are what medical doctors and interns who left school less than a year ago, are being put through by their country. Some few individuals in the top echelon of the ministry of defence — emboldened by the silence of the heads of these hospitals — have conspired to sit on the salaries these doctors have worked hard for, and at the same time, exposing them to all the risks and hazards imaginable. These monies which have been approved and released, are fixed in bank deposits where they are rolled over every month with the ogas at the top profiting from the sweat of the young men and women who are doing all the work under the most inhumane conditions. Is it any wonder why every young doctor is struggling to leave the country? As it is, there is nothing here for them. 2 Likes |

Health / Re: "Abortion Of Deformed Babies" Is It Justifiable? by Sirgen05(m): 12:35am On Jan 03, 2014 |
Originalsly: How does the mother know the fetus is deformed? I don't agree with such an abortion.....if the fetus is to die let it die a natural death. Some deformed fetuses when born can't survive more than few minutes. Some may not even survive d pregnancy e.g anencephaly...... without brain. Such can be terminated!!! However some minor deformities like absence of hands Or six toes and fingers can be managed, hence not terminated!!! All these can be detected by some imaging and biochemical tests. |
