Always in the news, mostly for the wrong reasons, the state government-run Bharat Ratna Late Pandit Bhimsen Joshi (Tembha) Civil Hospital in Bhayandar courted yet another controversy after an 81-year-old patient went missing under mysterious circumstances on Monday.
The senior citizen, Badrinath Nag (81), was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the hospital following complaints of breathlessness on Sunday night.
Father Missing from ICU, Hospital Staff Clueless
Despite spending the entire night outside the ICU, the patient’s daughter, Kakuli Mitra, was asked to leave by hospital staff. When she returned the next day, she was shocked to learn that her father was not in the ICU. The on-duty hospital staffers informed her that her father had been shifted to the general ward. However, her thorough search of the general ward and the entire hospital proved fruitless, as her father was nowhere to be found. The hospital staff was equally clueless about the patient’s whereabouts.
Concerned about her father’s disappearance, Kakuli Mitra registered a missing persons complaint at the local police station. Dr. Zafar Tadvi, the civil surgeon, assured strict action against any individuals found guilty of negligence. The hospital’s workforce is currently searching for the missing patient.
