Madhya Pradesh: Son carries father on shoulders in hospital
India
At Guna District Hospital, Munesh Raghuvanshi had to carry his ailing father on his shoulders because no stretcher or help was available.
The lift was out of order and, even with 15 ward boys on staff, none stepped in—despite Munesh's repeated requests.
Patient died when ambulance had flat tire
Sadly, this isn't a one-off at Guna Hospital. A patient died when an ambulance had a flat tire and no spare.
With the Chief Medical Health Officer now promising action, it's clear these basic lapses are putting patients—and their families—through needless hardship.
