]]> Nurses at the Accra Psychiatric hospital have told Citi News, that there is still no new stock of medicine after their demonstration last Tuesday.

The nurses  who demonstrated on Tuesday to protest the lack of drugs at hospital said their lives are in danger; treating aggressive patients without the medicines and also complained about working conditions at the hospital.

The Medical Director of the Accra Psychiatric Hospital, Dr Akwasi Osei in an earlier interview with Citi News said his outfit has received some funds to buy some of the drugs.

But the nurses say the hospital is yet to receive the needed drugs to treat the patients.

The District Chair Person of the Ghana Registered Nurses Association Samuel Cudjoe Hanu in an interview Citi News confirmed to Citi News that the Medical Director of the hospital had been given some funds to buy the drugs “but I can tell you that those medications, you don’t get them on the open market.”

According to him, the pharmacy department of the hospital is out of medical supplies.

“Some philanthropists have gotten us some medications but those medications are nowhere near our requirement for a day,” he said.

Mr. Hanu also told Citi News, they will take a final decision on their threat to lay down their tools by close of Thursday.

The ultimatum they gave to the government is up “and we are waiting up till 6pm today. After 6pm, when we’ve not heard any news, tomorrow morning, we will gather and inform our people and then we will take a decision from there.”
