Haaaaa painful. It's quite unfortunate that the said lady died.

The problem with this reporter is that she failed to reason well because she was too emotional.
How would a Doctor collect money for card? How would a Doctor be rejoicing because a patient died? How would a teaching hospital being manned by students? How would doctors wrap up the corpse? How would a Doctor be asking a relative of an emergency case out? How would you claimed you provided everything the doctor needed and still did nothing to save the patient?
Even in some private hospitals doctors don't charge you as some other staff do that.

All these are not doctors jobs.

You added a lot to this your story. You are too biased

Even if the hospital has no oxygen, would you blame doctors for that and absolve the government? Blame the government most who just named any building teaching hospital to gain politically, never equipped with staff and tools. Blame the government who asked them to generate income at the expense of lives. ie, they must collect money before treating patient.

Not all emergency cases can be saved by doctors because a lot of patients would have been killing themselves for long without seeking medical help until it becomes emergency.
You don't even know if they're doctors you just described everyone you saw that day as doctors.
It is not nice to lose anybody to death no matter what. But the kind of ailment that kills fast or health condition that deteriorates faster like that needs to be known. If postmortem is done, you will be shocked at what killed the said lady.
May God comfort you sister

May her soul rest in peace.

Why are you curing their ignorance now? Pls let them continue to wallow and jollificate in it....I need Nigerian Patients to insult me pls so I can recharge.

The fact remains, Nigerian health care system is in complete shambles.

I'll try to avoid pointing fingers, but the truth is that many Nigerians have died needless and completely avoidable deaths in Nigerian hospitals. I am sure the story here has been blown out of proportion, and no doctor will stand there and fold his/her hands with a patient in a critical state. But there is often no smoke without a fire. We may never know the true story because we weren't there.

Nonetheless, I once worked in the said hospital during my service year, and menh...I used to think that we had it worse in the south west. But with what I saw in that same hospital, a general hospital in the SW would beat that hospital hands down. I wonder how that hospital still remains a teaching hospital - a hospital that didn't start teaching anything until recently.

RIP to the dead. I hope this serves as a wake up call for Nigerians in general. It's high time we step up medical litigation cases, if that would make everyone accountable for their actions. But until everyone understands that it's their right to get and demand the best healthcare and not leave everything in the hands of God, things like this will continue.

madgoat:

If you are jealous of doctors, buy jamb form and go to medical school and stop yarning rubbish on social media. Nonsense

just look at your reasoning ,so if someone is critical of politicians in Nigeria that means he should become a pilitician

Well, since you served there you should know better. However, is it true that medical students were the ones running the hospital like the way she painted it?
Litigation is not bad but how would you go about it even when you have no money for treatment in the first place. Until NHIS goes round and people are ready to pay for investigation and also present earlier for medical treatment, then Nigerians are wasting their time.
Government of that state has to be blamed. A tertiary health institution that is lacking in all these is not fit to be a primary health care facility. Blame the government.
Are you not surprised that her medical condition deteriorated fast. Autopsy will shock those ignorants blaming doctors all the time

Leave them, everyone is saying doctor this, doctor that now and when they ask for better package. The public will be insulting doctors.
Like you said in 5 years time, very minute doctors would be around to blame.

I have not seen any hospital in Nigeria where "medical students" run the place or even are left to attend to patients. When I was there, I had students, but none of them were allowed to single-handedly attend to patients. It's possible they are referring to medical interns, and these are qualified doctors. Nonetheless, many people often think any young doctor is a medical student.

Ideally, for situations like this, an autopsy is COMPULSORY. You have a point - emergencies are emergencies, and it's not in all cases, even with the best of facilities and personnel, that a person survives. Nonetheless, an autopsy will reveal the cause of death and provide better insights into what happened. But this is Nigeria where an autopsy is seen either as a waste of money or a taboo. I won't be surprised if the family decides against an autopsy, and yet, everyone will be pointing fingers as if they knew the details of the case.

About litigation, hmmmm...it costs money. But let the ones with money even start it. We need to start from somewhere, and hold EVERYONE in the health system accountable for their actions.

Oh...God! I'm in tears just reading this story.

I read the story...

Can't help but agree with the comment..

The narrator admitted the girl was not aware of their presence at the clinic before they got to hospital.

How did the narrator know these re student doctors...

The gals re slay Queen's.. From the narrative...and photos..

She knows more about what led to the condition than she admitted..

She wanted the world to know she spent some over 5k on the girl...

These people will always blame someone else for their predicament..wen dey do drugs, when they defraud banks.. , its such a pity.

Rip to the dead anyway..

RIP to the dead. Medical professionals should improve. If you had know you would have dome some test for her instead of waiting on them. All you said On her death leads to hypo glycemia. I may not be the best in the proffession but God will see us through.

lebete3000:


Pls let them crucify all the doctors jarey!!!

The more they crucify them, the more they'll be inspired to leave and the the patients will end up having goat's to attend to them by 2025.

Pls give us more heat!! We need it to get out of this sheeeett called Naija.

What's so special about 2025

so sad!

EsotericMonk:
Sad that she had to die like that, but I am soo not comfortable with the general level of ignorance to the workings and cadres of staff in the hospital.
For instance, I can't go into a law office and describe everyone there,right from the gatemen to the secretary as lawyers. Thus the story has to let us know if the friend was attended to by medical students (student docs) or by medical doctors cos med students don't man university clinics or hospitals.
Agreed that op added soo much spice to the story that the naive reader could get ulcer from, one thing was obvious: there are questions to be answered.
I don't subscribe to or believe in social media ranting, as it could be prejudiced and biased.
Pls if anyone thinks the doc who oversaw your condition didn't do well, write a petition to the medical council, it's free and you don't need a lawyer to do that .

Exactly, i was wondering which hospital leaves student doctors in charge of the Emergency ward oo. The babe just spiced up the story for gullible and ignorant Nigerians to digest, there's more to this story abeg

The girl is a pathological liar, the story no add up

Rest in Peace Fabulous Baeluchi, you are never to be forgotten.

For those saying it is a spiced up story, you sure know nothing about COOUTH.

This story is some how. Students don't consult patients at teaching hospitals

So painful. May her soul rest in peace

NLmember:
When I said many Nigerian doctors are nothing but pompous airheads one of their colleagues, ultron419 abi wetin be him name decided to start swearing for his generation.
See how another life was lost because of their improper training. Many of them have no idea what they are doing, they will even open google to check for symptoms right there in front of the patient. All they know is to raise shoulder and be claiming title of doctor.
Foolish half baked clowns.

Oga, coman goan takit izi. They said student doctors. You are saying something else.

This is just wrong. First of all, they should have taken her vitals, and samples for a lab test and tried to stabilize her before any other thing. All these arrogant student doctors that don't even know if they will pass the next mb. That's how they behave. The number of people that doctors kill in this country (Not just the students) and its just swept under the rug cos Nigerians either don't have money to sue them or the strength and connections. Yet, they will be going after other health professionals, claiming to know. A laboratory test would have told those fools what to do after stabilizing the girl. I pray they don't go unpunished. This is a young life for crying out loud. you can imagine how many more of stories like this we don't get to hear but they happen. I was wrongly diagnosed of "acute appendicitis' as they called it and I was bombarded with such strong antibiotics that I was peeing, shitting and sweating antibiotics, only for it to continue after a while. I went to a radiographer, and after a good scan, he told me my appendix was fine that it was just ovulation. I did my calculations and realised that he was right. till now, I'm all good and with the advice he gave me, I'm living a better life and I don't even get the pains any longer. #No to quackery.Too many lives lost.

Wat a way to die. Soo sory dear.but pls WHO AND WHERE IS THAT YR2 GUY?WHAT PART DID HE PLAY IN D LIFE.SICKNESSES AND DEATH OF OLUCHI?

Let Nigerians continue to lambast the few quack doctors they have left, while they hail the looters that put the hospitals in the mess they are.

By this time 2025 I can assure you they'll be no single doctor practising in Nigeria.

I can swear on my life....shebi we told you guys the consequences of not giving a damn about your doctors, you'll rather prefer to blackmail us when we fight for our rights through strike saying we're evil people.

Don't worry we'll leave you guys in good hands when we're all gone and we'll see who you'll blame next....I'm sure you still won't blame the polithiefcians even if they're the ones left, you'll find a way of absolving them of any blame and put the blame on yourself instead.

Cursed and confused Nigerian Patients.

shut ya trap man hw dare u refer to ur pt as cursed?
