    "content": "Even when you look at what is going on in these hospitals, there is so much jostling and fighting about welfare and nobody is concerned about patients. Everybody is fighting about how much they earn, how much they should earn and how much they will be earning. Nobody is talking about how to look after patients. Even if you were to leave those nurses--- This brings me to the point that this country must continuously strengthen KMTCs and train good and quality nurses. If you go to the villages, you will find a-90- year-old man who has been going to hospital for treatment and has never been seen by a doctor. They are only seen by nurses and dressers and all those low calibre medics but they save lives. Now, commercial enterprise has approached us and taken over. Everybody is just talking about different things. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want us – as a House that defends and protects counties – to now deal with the issue of medical and the primary engagement is that a hospital is not about buildings or anything else other than the personnel that man the hospital and the drugs available and equipment to protect people. You can have the best equipment you want but if you have no drugs--- You go to the village every day and ask: “ Huyu mtu alikufa namna gani ?” “ Alikohoa tu akaenda hospitali akakufa .” Those are the things you hear everywhere. How can you kohoa tu na kwenda hospitali na kufa ? It is simply because nobody is working as they should. Let us give hospitals medicine and ensure there is a stable flow.
