In a bid to set the records straight and redeem the reputation of Nigerian Nurses, a source who has chosen to remain annonymous has disclosed what actually transpired at the Rauf Aregbesola Health Centre in Egbeda, Alimosho Local Government Area of Lagos. You would recall that last week, the PUNCH Newspaper had published an article titled "Maternal Tragedy: Mother, child die looking for doctors". In this article, PUNCH Newspaper had maliciously defamed and callously painted "black, incompetent and unprofessional; the Nurses who work at the Rauf Aregbesola Health Centre in Egbeda. In a swift reaction, a nurse jude chiedu had written an article in solidarity with our colleagues at the Rauf Aregbesola Health Center. He also condemned the article by the PUNCH as lacking a factual balance in its reporting. In a volte-face and confirmation of threat of legal action against PUNCH Newspaper, the page has been removed. The article no longer exists on the punch website as the link to the offending publication /1WBuiDR doesnt open again. The fact that PUNCH Newspaper has taken down the offensive and derogatory publication is a confirmation to the info by our source that the LCDA has initiated a legal redress against punch as the story was not investigated at either the PHC or council. According to our source, the Ministry of Health is on the case. Here is what actually transpired according to an unnamed source to NursingworldNigeria.com The woman was a booked case of the PHC but she went to deliver in a church where she was mismanaged. The church apparently had no facility to cope with Emergency obstetric care (EmOC). The baby was dead on arrival at the PHC. The woman had 2nd degree tear and was bleeding. The Nursing officer stitched her up and set up an I.V. line. She applied anti shock garment and used her vehicle to take her to Igando General Hosptial as the Ambullance was faulty and recently repaired when the story broke out. At the GH, they didn't want to admit her but the Nurse visited the Apex who prevailed on others to create a bed space for her. They put up a second IV line at the GH and commenced her management while her blood was collected for confirmation of her grouping and cross matching. She was treated for shock. The Nurse even paid for some of the initial treatment requested for at the GH since the husband said he has no money on him. The woman was still alive before the Nurse left, but the fact is that she had already lost a lot of blood. Nursingworld sincerely appreciates this source for sharing this information and we promise to bring our readers more details as the case unfolds. We commend the LCDA for taking the fight to redeem our public image which the news media has consistently dented and rubbished.

ah, they are natural clingers o! evey body child and adult have diffeernt temperaments,s some are lovey feely others just want to be left alone. a friend of mine had twins,one could always stay on her own but the other liked to be carried, same mom, same hand, same method from day one! its just the way they are. just like bfeeding, some stop on their own, others want to die there. It may feel demanding but they are only small for a short time....enjoy it..


i read up a lot when i was overwhelmed a bit with my baby and my conclusion with hindsight is you cant spoil a baby

alright sis

lovinam:
Hahahahah. Pls some babies are natural "clingers". If you don't caryy them wahala if u do wahala. So just work as it suits you. Daycare centre have ways to handle clingy babies( not by allowing them cry). They have ways to distract them. *shrugs* whatever works for you sha, if u want start training your month old baby on how to adapt in creche.

okay ma. Am just saying,we share from experience, but I doubt if there is anything like natural climbers. Dey are just the way u train them and this is not my first time of commenting.

lovinam:
Don't mind them! I spoil my kids till 2yrs then I show u nwi. Lol

is only an advice cos wen u start working and u have to take her to creche, is she d only one they wil carry for hand.
