Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna wants the qualifications of all staff at Mama Lucy Kibaki hospital reviewed.<\/p>\n

This comes amid numerous controversies that have been surrounding the facility.<\/p>\n

The latest was the death of Maureen Anyango who died after giving birth to twins at the facility.<\/p>\n

An account by her husband, Robert Onyango, pointed accusing fingers at the medics who failed to attend to her on time, making her bleed to death.<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw my wife with two nurses. They were struggling to fix the pipes, they were wondering which pipe should go where, I had to carry the oxygen cylinder because they had no one to help them,\u201d Omondi said.<\/p>\n

Sifuna has acknowledged that it is the constitutional right of every Kenyan to access emergency medical care adding that there is a need for action to prevent further horror stories from the facility.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to review the qualifications of everyone working at Mama Lucy from the senior medical staff, the management to the person who is at the gate to receive patients,\u201d Sifuna said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t want to spend our time listening to broken families relive the painful memories of how they lost their loved ones in what essentially should be facilities to enhance people\u2019s health.\u201d<\/p>\n

The senator said it is clear that some of these institutions are death chambers, people are just being taken there to slaughter.<\/p>\n

Omondi said nurses who were handling his wife could not tell which pipes to fit into her mouth.<\/p>\n

The 28-year-old woman delivered twins at the facility on September 6.<\/p>\n

Her husband told the Senate Health Committee that his wife started bleeding profusely after delivering through a caesarian section.<\/p>\n

The ambulance driver who had been assigned the duty of transferring her to Kiambu hospital got lost along the way, wasting unnecessary time as it was a matter of life and death.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would not even hire a personal driver who does not know his whereabouts around Nairobi how do you give an ambulance to someone who doesn\u2019t know where they are going?\u201d he posed.<\/p>\n
