Maharashtra: Four more deaths at Kalwa hospital, nine-member panel to conduct probe

Hindustan Times  

Four more patients were declared dead at the civic-run Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj hospital on Monday, including a one-month-old infant admitted to the Neonatal ICU. “Its workload has increased due to redevelopment of the Thane civil hospital.” Shinde said he had asked the civil hospital to increase its capacity by 100 beds and given orders that ambulances should ferry patients free of cost to the civil hospital whenever required. “This hospital provides injections as expensive as ₹40,000 and ₹1 lakh free to patients,” he said. There is no government hospital in Diva, and we had to bring him to Kalwa, since local doctors advised an MRI before further treatment.” Meanwhile, Thane civil surgeon Dr Kailash Pawar and his team put up banners at the gates of the Kalwa hospital, informing patients that beds were available at the Thane Civil Hospital premises, which had relocated next to the Thane Mental Hospital in May this year. On Monday, two patients who did not get ICU beds at Kalwa hospital were accommodated in the civil hospital.
