OOUTH: The Teaching Hospital Without Equipment by shehuolayinka(m): 5:33am On May 07, 2019 |
Twitter has in the last couple of hours being agog with stories about the sorry state of Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital (OOUTH). It has been about how one of the best public owned hospital in country became a death trap to Nigerians. Trending under the #SaveOOUTH, the hospital once regarded as the best State-owned in the country, has been reduced to a glorified morgue. The hospital, which was transformed from general to a teaching one after the establishment of Ogun State University (now Olabisi Onabanjo University), is being confronted with inadequate staffing, dearth of facilities, dilapidated structures as well as unpaid salary. Strategically located in the heart of Sagamu town in such a way that it is the natural point of attraction to accident victims on the Lagos-Ibadan and Sagamu-Benin expressways, is confronted with a myriad of challenges. The hospital lacks common X-ray facilities. Some tweeted that patients in need of X-ray, him/her has would have to go to a nearby private hospital whether in the town or an adjoining town before he/she can have it done. Many patients have been reported to have lost their lives waiting for treatment. Also, the teaching hospital operates in the dark when Electricity company fails to supply the hospital with power, with health workers attending to patients in the dark with the use of torch lights, mobile phones, and flashlight. Some facilities within the 25-year old hospital are in a sorry state while some areas are overgrown with weed. The toilets and some buildings are in dilapidated conditions. Experience shared on social media about the hospital tell of a sad tale that is unbecoming of government institutions across the country.
