அரசு மருத்துவமனையின் ஐ.சி.யுவில் உலவும் எலிகள்..!

According to a report by Polimer News, patients at the Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Government Hospital in Trichy have raised serious concerns regarding sanitary conditions within the facility's intensive care unit (ICU). The allegations follow a separate incident reported yesterday, in which a female patient in the hospital's women's ward suffered a bite to her toe from a rodent, necessitating her transfer to the ICU for further medical observation and care.

Following the initial reports of the rodent incident, hospital administration reportedly initiated a sanitation drive to clean the premises. However, patients and their families have since alleged that rodent activity persists even within the ICU, an area that requires strict sterile conditions and high-level maintenance to ensure the safety of critically ill patients. The report includes video footage purportedly showing rodents moving through the ICU ward, sparking public outcry regarding the hospital's hygiene standards.

As of now, the hospital administration has not issued a formal statement regarding the specific claims of rodent presence in the intensive care unit. The incident has drawn attention to the broader challenges of maintaining medical infrastructure in public health facilities. Local health authorities are expected to face pressure to conduct a thorough inspection and implement more rigorous pest control measures to ensure patient safety and prevent further health risks.
