Description:
There are technically no registered NICU or other specialist nurses in Trinidad and Tobago. That's according to President of the Registered Nurses' Association Idi Stuart, who tells TV6 that non-specialist nurses routinely work in specialist units at our nation's hospitals... and while there are some nurses with specialist training, there is no national registry to mandate or enforce standards as it pertains to their training. He's calling on the Ministry of Health to get its act together... and he's also calling on the NWRHA to come clean about the nurse-to-patient ratio at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Rynessa Cutting reports.
