“There are some people whom we have had to ‘treat with’ some time ago and treat with seriously, because somehow they felt that the salary was not enough and therefore, they decided to do other things that would increase their salaries and we couldn’t tolerate that.”—Reg. Six ChairmanSeveral doctors working at various health facilities in Berbice have had their contracts terminated for charging patients for services.? This revelation was made by Region Six Chairman, David Armogan recently, during an address to a new batch of doctors back from studies in Cuba.He stated that some doctors in Berbice had to be disciplined while some were even sent back overseas after they were found to be charging patients for services at public hospitals.He chastised doctors “who want to do the ‘side thing’.”Region Six Chairman,NFL Jerseys Supply, David Armogan“There are some people whom we have had to ‘treat with’ some time ago and treat with seriously, because somehow they felt that the salary was not enough and therefore,China NFL Jerseys, they decided to do other things that would increase their salaries,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, and we couldn’t tolerate that.”All services at public healthcare facilities in Guyana are free of cost.Armogan, who is also a top member of the Berbice Regional Health Authority (BRHA), announced that patient surveys will be out soon so that medical health care officials in the Ancient County can be evaluated on their conduct and performances at the various medical facilities.Armogan stated that it is very important to “hear what patients are saying about you, and when you look at some of these surveys, sometimes patients do not speak too well about some of our doctors,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, and nurses too, because some of our nurses also create problems for us because of the way they treat our people.”“This is what happens sometimes in our system. The patient shouts and we shout back three times! And we get a confrontation. Sometimes, instead of looking after the patient, we beat up the patient! We have seen this!”The Chairman stated that health care practitioners need to temper themselves, “because at the end of the day,NFL Jerseys From China, you got to realize people are coming traumatized….”He stated that some of the major complaints that reach his desk are not about diagnosis; rather they are about the doctors’ and nurses’ attitudes.“Being a good doctor is about having a good reputation.
