At Bhabha Hospital of Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) in Kurla on Wednesday at 11:30 pm, a female patient and her relatives abused and beat up the nurse in the patient room. Enraged by this, the nurses staged a protest on Thursday morning demanding the immediate arrest of the patient's relatives and the appointment of a security guard in the patient room for the safety of the nurses.
Nurse Mohini Matere, who was on night duty in the women's ward at Bhabha Hospital in Kurla, asked relatives of the patients to leave the ward as the former wanted to give medicine to the patient. The girl, who was a minor patient at that time, refused to send her friends and relatives out. However, she told the patient and her relatives that apart from giving medicine to the patients, they have to clean the room, and since this is a women's room, men cannot stay late at night.
Meanwhile, in this regard, in the meeting of the nurses with the medical superintendent of the hospital, Padmashri Ahire, the head of the security guard pointed out the issue of not having enough security guards. Ahire assured the nurses that after discussing with the seniors, security guards will be appointed as soon as possible.
