Opposition Spokesman on Health and Wellness Dr Alfred Dawes is calling for decisive action to address recurring infrastructure issues at Kingston Public Hospital (KPH) amid disruptions to surgeries.
On Sunday, the management of Kingston Public Hospital indicated that surgical services at the facility continue to be disrupted because of challenges with the central air-conditioning system serving two operating theatres.
The South East Regional Health Authority (SERHA) said the faults have led to delays in the scheduling and completion of elective surgeries across multiple specialties.
