The two nurses who were fired for going live on Facebook while on duty at the Royal MMR Hospital in Accra say they suspect foul play in the circumstances leading to their sack.
According to them, the video was recorded on 23rd April, 2017 and therefore they could not fathom why the video ‘should resurrect now’.
The nurses, identified as Trudy Ewurama Marcel and Ramatu, were fired after their conduct was found to be in breach of the hospital’s rules.
They chose to do Facebook Live and resond to comments, some of them vulgar, while at work in their uniforms.
When Adom FM broke the news Thursday, authorities at the hospital were stunned and they assured the pubkic the two nurses would be sanctioned.
Medical Director of the hospital, Dr. Mohammed Donkor confirmed the sacking on Adom FM.
He said the hospital feels very embarrassed by the conduct of the two thus they had no choice than to part ways with them.
The two nurses were employed as health assistants at the Royal MMR Hospital.
But one of the nurses, Trudy Ewurama Marcel says she suspects someone is behind the recent action just to tarnish her image.
“We had closed from work that day and besides the video was recorded way back in April and so I don’t understand why it should be in the news now. I think someone triggered that just to destroy me,” she cried on Accra based Neat FM.
Trudy Marcel, who claims to have been in the health industry for two (2) years “the hospital authorities of have only asked us to step aside for investigations to begin into the matter,” she explained.
The embattled nurse admitted that their conduct was in breach of the hospital’s rules, and they regret it.
“Yes, we admit it was a mistake and we apologized for our acts,” she said.
