KARACHI:
The hospitals of Turbat are steeped in critical negligence. A few days ago, I witnessed a heartbreaking incident in a hospital where a pregnant woman and her newborn baby lost their lives during an operation. According to people, a serious mistake and negligence by the medical staff caused this tragic incident. The painful cries of family members deeply affected everyone there.
While an objective conclusion blaming the hospital cannot be reached in that particular scenario, it still is true that medical negligence costs lives every year. Hospitals are meant to save lives and provide comfort to patients, but a careless and inattentive staff can destroy entire families. Such incidents create fear among the public and raise serious questions about the responsibility and professionalism of hospital workers. Medical staff should be properly trained, attentive and responsible while handling critical cases. I request the concerned authorities to investigate such incidents seriously and take strict action against negligence in hospitals.
