The case of Nam Dinh Hospital was accused of 'losin.g medical ethics', no one admitted wrong, fans said 1 sentence directly

Recently, social media circulated a video allegedly of the person who took the bab.y to the emergency room, accusing Nam Dinh Hospital of forcing him to pay hospital fees and then giving him emergency treatment, ignoring the danger of the young gir.l. The information immediately spread, leading to many opinions.

In a 2-minute clip posted on May 3, Mr. H.T.T said that he took M.T.A (4 years old) to the emergency room at Nam Dinh Provincial General Hospital after an incident with a homemade tricycle. According to Mr. T, the medical staff requires the person accompanying the pediatric patient to pay the hospital fee advance in full before giving emergency treatment to the chil.d.

Mr. T. said that when he was admitted to the hospital, the chil.d was examined by a doctor and measured his heart rate. After that, Mr. T. was instructed to pay the hospital fee advance of 2 million VND, but he only brought 500,000 VND, so the doctor instructed him to go to the hospital fee advance payment room first.

"When I took the advance paper to a counter at the hospital, I presented the case again, asking the emergency doctors to give the bab.y first aid. His father was carrying the mone.y and I was just a passerby, not carrying much mone.y. At that time, the medical staff insisted that I had to pay enough mone.y to give the scan, which made me very frustrated and took out my phone to film. When I finished the video, a few minutes later, the chil.d was taken to the screening," said Mr. T.

The chil.d was then transferred to the National Children's Hospital on the evening of the same day (3/5). As soon as the pediatric patient was received, the on-duty team examined and assessed the bab.y's condition, abdominal injury, and prescribed emergency surgery. On the morning of May 4, after the surgery, the bab.y's health condition was still "severe, not good, needs to be closely monitored".

A quick report on May 4 of Nam Dinh Provincial General Hospital showed that the person who brought Mr. A. had paid an advance of 500,000 VND. Medical staff carry out administrative procedures on the hospital management software system so that they do not have to pay additional mone.y.

In the explanation of the team on duty on May 3, the medical staff did not directly communicate with the person who brought Mr. A. to the emergency room with the content of "paying enough mone.y for emergency treatment". During the examination and treatment at the hospital, the parents of the pediatric patient had no opinion.

Talking to the media, Mr. T. expressed his disagreement: "The information I reflected about the incident of the chil.d at the hospital is true. What is the situation, I think just extract the camera to clarify."

After listening to the Board of Directors of Nam Dinh Provincial General Hospital report on the emergency treatment process of the patient, watching video extracts from the hospital's camera and data on the management software, the leader of the Nam Dinh Department of Health said that pediatric patient A. was taken for a scan, but it was necessary to review the process of communication between the nurse and the person who brought the chil.d for examination how to get sick.

"We have to carefully review who said 'pay enough mone.y for emergency'. At the same time, we will review the camera, ask more witnesses to the incident and discuss with the person who took the chil.d to the hospital to clarify, then there will be a handling plan," said a leader of the Nam Dinh Department of Health. The leader emphasized that the hospital's report is not yet the final conclusion.

Following the above incident, reader Thanh Duc said that there was a contradiction in the information from the hospital and the "accuser" regarding the content of "paying enough mone.y for emergency". Therefore, the Director of Nam Dinh Provincial General Hospital needs to direct to immediately check the extracted video to see if or not the medical staff said so. "Just check VAR and it will come true," this reader suggested.

Reader Khai Quang said that it is necessary to pay attention to the before and after developments of the video posted on social networks to have an objective assessment of the incident. Therefore, it is necessary to check the video extracted from the hospital's camera, if it is true as alleged, seriously review the team on duty.

"This is medical ethics, working attitude, if the accusatio.n is not true, it will also regain the prestige of the institute," said reader Khai Quang.

By the morning of May 5, the case at Nam Dinh Provincial General Hospital still had no final conclusion. However, according to reader Linh Thu, if the hospital requires to pay enough mone.y to receive emergency treatment, "no passerby dares to take people in distress who are not familiar with the incident to the emergency room".

Many readers want the incident to be verified and clarified, and information to be made public. At the same time, the hospital needs to thoroughly grasp the policy of emergency treatment for people in distress, and the paperwork can be completed later.
