Long wait at hospital draws complaints
THE Health Ministry has been urged to upgrade services and reduce the waiting time for patients at the Kajang Hospital in Selangor, reported Tamil Nesan.
According to the daily, even those going to the emergency unit needed to wait for a long time.
It cited a case on Monday where a patient who arrived at the unit at 5pm was attended to only at 10pm.
The daily quoted the patient, R. Krishnamoorthy, as saying that he had gone to the hospital as he had high fever.
It also quoted another patient, S. Arokiamary, who complained that those in outpatient clinics frequently had to wait very long to see the doctors.
