Doctors and Nurses have resumed to the Countrywide Strike over the infamous signing of Bargaining Agreement between their Union and Government.
It was not until the Government and the Council of Governors hardened their stand that the Union officials called off the strike which lasted for 3 Months.
However, they renewed their spirited fight for 'Their demands' probably because the Government is desperate on vote hunting and will do all what they can to get votes in their baskets.
That not withstanding, Murang'a General Hospital patients are a devastated and troubled souls. This is because when the nurses received the memo from their officials on the strike, they immediately withdrew from the chores and reprimanded the patients to move away from the premises of the hospital and come back 'only when they hear The Government has met their demands'
"Nurses waited until we pay Sh 1900 for lab test only to be told later to take our Mum and transfer her to another hospital or take her home," Annastashiah Njoki told KK online News at Muranga Hospital.
"It has been the worst experience of my life and it devastates me that the rude and uncaring nurse I met have left me resentful and reluctant to set my foot here again".
She pleaded with nurses to be humanly enough since the Government could still pay them even the days they are in the strike.
Another lady from Gitugi, Mathioya whose mother is suffering from Diabetes, Arthritis and Hypertension said that she had been sent at Focus Laboratory, KK online News has learnt that all the Patients are sent there for lab tests, and upon returning to the hospital she was told to go and take her mother from the Ward. "This is very unfair! My Mother is very sick she can't stand on her own and has not been examined today, I even don't know where to take them.
Lucy Waruinu bursted into tears after narrating to Journalists how they were turned away like stray dogs.
"I pleaded with Nurses to let my Sister sleep in the hospital for her condition but they scolded us to get out of the hospital,"
The nurses were also heard saying that even after the National Government Plays it's part, they would also go on strike over their remittance claiming that the County Government of Muranga has been withholding for a long period.
KK online News last months reported a story where nurses tell patients that Wa Iria do not purchase medical items and medicine at the expense of Free maize seedlings and Fertilizer subsidies.
According to the Study rudeness damages once ability to think, manage informations and make decisions.
This means that rudeness in medical settings could kill patients.
This is because People and specifically patients spend time and energy processing why rude comments were made against them which said away mental resource.
