Both corpses were shifted to mortuary hastily. The administration acted only after the intervention. Meanwhile, questions arose about hospital functioning again.
Patients’ relatives shared their concerns about conditions. They mentioned daily crowding in the emergency ward. However, staff shortage worsens the situation continuously.
The incident has highlighted serious operational issues. MGM Hospital faces criticism for administrative failures. Moreover, coordination problems between departments remain evident.
The hospital’s emergency services handle large patient volumes daily. Staff inadequacy affects service quality significantly. In addition, administrative lapses create recurring problems.
