SRI AMAN: A labourer from Lubok Antu, Tomsom Rudi Ramba, is demanding compensation from the Sri Aman Hospital as his wife Anna Kajan, had died at the Accident and Emergency (A&E) Ward apparently due to its staff’s negligence.
The late Anna had died last year of apparent heart failure, after
her husband brought her to the hospital from Lubok Antu soon after she
complained of chest pain.
Tomson said they were chased away to the polyclinic where they had
to wait for two hours for a doctor.
When their turn came he said the doctor quickly tried to treat
her, having found out she was suffering from heart failure.
They had to wait for the ambulance to bring her from the
polyclinic to the A&E again to administer further treatment, but they were
unable to save her having arrived there.
He had sought the help of DAP Sri Aman branch chief Leon Jimat
Donald, and together they met the hospital director last week.
The late Anna was only 28 years old when she died, and she left
behind a daughter who is now seven years old.
According to Leon, they were informed that the hospital had
finished its internal investigation on the matter.
Leon also said the director told them an external investigation
would be conducted by the Department of Health, together with specialists
appointed by the department
