Son of elderly patient lodges complaint after finding it next to his bed
Family members of an elderly patient admitted to Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS), Adilabad, have raised complaint about an expired medicine vial that they found beside the 65-year-old’s bed. The vial had expired in January this year, alleged the patient’s son, Kailash Sharma, who happened to check the date before it was administered. He added that he is unsure if expired medicines have been administered to his father earlier. The patient’s condition was stable on Monday. A complaint was lodged with the hospital’s superintendent, police, and Adilabad district collector. Staff of the hospital informed the administration that the expired vial was indeed found in the ward. An inquiry committee has been formed to get to the bottom of the issue.More Related News
