• 11 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to thank my colleagues for contributing to this important Motion. It is important to have a training programme. It is necessary for all medical personnel to be trained. Somebody said that it should not be limited to medical personnel. I hope other people can also be trained especially those who are in the transport sector and those who handle emergencies. view
• 11 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: The fire brigade and every person who is involved in evacuating victims of accidents should have basic knowledge on emergency medical care. My concern is in the public health facilities. It is important that everybody who lands in those health facilities is handled properly right from the primary care centres to the transportation levels. There should be a properly coordinated mechanism for transporting sick people from one level to another. In each level, these people should find properly trained medical personnel and equipment to handle them. It has been noted everywhere that many patients die while they are being evacuated, ... view
• 11 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: Somebody said that there was no medical care in one hospital for three hours. Either the personnel did not know what to do or they did not take proper action. So, it is important that medical personnel know automatically what to do once a medical emergency takes place. When we talk about emergencies, many people think of accidents. We have all manner of emergencies in medicine. For example, we have diabetics in coma, hypertensive and cardiovascular accidents, obstetric emergencies and all manner of emergencies. If somebody lands in a hospital and he is not handled properly, he or she may ... view
• 11 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: We do not have a relevant post-graduate programme in this country. Many people who are trained outside on emergency care are not recognised as consultants when they come back into the country. I would urge that they are recognised as consultants. They will be instrumental in putting up this curriculum so that many people can benefit and medical care can be delivered properly. view
• 11 Nov 2015 in National Assembly: With the new Health Bill coming into place and the new Constitution, healthcare is a right for every individual. Emergency care should be given without condition in any institution, whether in private or even in our public institutions. If those delivering healthcare do not know what to do, we will end up continually losing lives. view

I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, aware that Article 43(1)(a) and(2) of the Constitution provides for the right to the highest attainable standard of health for every person; further aware that emergency health care is an important component of standard health services; concerned that many lives continue to be lost due to lack of adequate emergency health care and poor response to emergencies in the country; noting that only 13% of public health facilities in the country have basic components to support emergency cases; deeply concerned that emergency patients are exposed to ... view
