Medical negligence in India

There have been many incidents like this in the past and this is sad (“Two-month-old baby who was denied stretcher dies in hospital”, Gulf News, March 28). Despite the deaths, the hospital authorities should periodically monitor the items to cater to the needs of the hospital. The state government should periodically check government hospitals and premium hospitals. Patients of any gender and age should be taken care of, in my opinion. Among all professions, a doctor’s profession is very great and doctors should take care of the patients without blaming the conditions. They should be supported with full infrastructural facilities. The Bihar Chief Minister is known for his governance and should address this call immediately. I hope in the coming days things may improve and patients should be treated humanely.
