Long Wait Times at Hospitals | Social Media Bullying Affects Politicians 

Doctor Morris it's all true what the social media is saying we're not blind, any way too late

Jamaican hospitals need resources no equipment in the hospitals, sometimes I wander what the doctors and nurses work with.

Hmm. I know for a fact that some of these foreign workers use Jamaica as a stepping stone to go to the US, Canada or UK. So is that an answer to the problem 🤔☹️

Jamaica 🇯🇲 hi love you so much people don’t no what they have omg

Why TVJ don't send journalists in the Hospitals to investigate what the Jamaican people is facing every Day. All these Radio stations and Television Stations Control or payed by Government.

Is only now people waiting long at hospitals????

That airline lady looking for that retirement cheque from American Airline 😂

Jamaica's health system needs a overall.

What are they going to work with ,how long will it take for them to speak english language to communicate with the citizens of the country,these johncrows sick my stomach

I will be voting this year Mr pm and my campaign will be strong. New member of the PNP

Politicians are being bullied on social media now? 😂

Listen I live overseas and I visit hospitals for treatment from time to time, some time s the waiting times is six to eight hours before you get treatment

Andrew is a samaged good # Andrew why is it important for DPP to stay in office to cover up you and your cronies corruption, and to dismiss all charges against you all a bunch of corrupt money grabbers you destroy the country and you brought the Jamaican people down into poverty accountability for all the money, Christopher Tufton why did you award market me money when you’re the owner of markett me?

Tufton what is sooo much money to you......because the money is not going to the workers, nor the hospitals......Tufton what happened to the money that you paid that lady to do advertising for Jamaica

The indian nurses are going to bring dem family here and take over Jamaica

We or black people. So thar how dem do we

Take it up with American air lines she out to be compensated for her injuries😮

Kmt wat about Jamaicas

A1

Pay the tuition for new university students who want to pursue health care

It's like we know when we going to die even if the doctor is in our pockets and the time comes we have to go..

S5

I never vote yet but I can tell you am going to vote for the pnp the jlp have to go

So since the health system suddenly becomes a concern why don't we all those of us who can buy a ventilator a bed or whatever is needed to alleviate the problem since Jamaica is for all of us and we a that so called concern fix the problem those who keep chatting chatting chatting why dont u help too

Increase the salary of the existing health workers. The salary doesn't attract persons to chose the career. If you calculate the salary of the imported workers to what you are offering your people it is outer disgrace.😢😢😢😢

These truck drivers only collect garbage where they can get a plate of food and drinks if you don't grease their palms act as if your garbage can stay there and send up a stench just like the drain cleaning and bushing silt that breed mosquitoes and the hurricane is at our backdoor

My deepest condolences to the family of this teacher who seemed, based on our feelings, was called home prematurely. May her soul Rest in Eternal Peace! I am a retired educator of 45 years. Teaching is a very demanding profession. It is of utmost importance that one dedicate some time to self-care. This teacher had headaches and was ailing for quite some time with very little health care. Had they done the MRI sooner, maybe the outcome would have been different. With health care the way it is, we sometimes downplay our illnesses and trust to luck. I am deeply saddened for this family, and pray God’s strength on the family at this time of great loss!

And you pay them more than the Jamaican nurses..It should be the same..

Place a 3 years ban on the agencies that are recruiting nurses to work in other countries. That’s a no brainer. Your nurses are being taken by other countries then you have to recruit from other countries? 🤷🏽‍♀️🤦‍♀️

soooo underpay our nurses run dem out now hire foreigners we got money man

Why? We lots of nurses in Jamaica 🇯🇲 train Jamaicans for free and bound them for 5years .

Help🇯🇲 help 🇯🇲 help 👮🏼‍♀️ police 👮‍♂️ 😮my friend dad went to KPH to get help . People them told her that her dad have to come back 8 month time . People 8 month She took him back . Wow!!! One ☝️ more8 month . Machine not working. What’s going on????

They need to grow a thick skin 😂😂😂😂 My family talk about me like a dog 🐶 including friends

Take the customer and patient for too much granted, is soo true. Customer service in government sector is terrible.

Dr. TUFFTON we want to know the salaries and benefits these import Healthcare workers will be receiving???😮

If volunteering at the hospitals is allowed, then some of the issues could be minimal.

You guys talking about sports news,what isn’t happening, are you guys are Labourwrong saying things that doesn’t happen 😡

Well ja nurses think USA system nurses there because of over work also in the hospital many patients and u have to cross every t and dot every so a lot of nurses leave and working in small clinics or who can do travelling nurse it's not a med of roses foreign nurses are recruit in the USA too 😮😮

Tough tongue why didn’t you start this program before now, you are going backwards😡 no love for Jamaican 🔥

Tuftan is so silly . Why are you going to hire nurses from outside Jamaica? Get the young ladies and men leaving school , give them grants and train them and pay them that salary . Philipino nurses are expensive in the long run and they will take their families with them . That will not help the economy. Philipino men do not work as their nurse wives are the bread winner . I work with them so I know . How is this helping Jamaica??

No promises is acceptable from any Jamaican politicians

JAMAICA 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 HAS BEEN CHANGES IN LIFE, PLS😇🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲😇🙏❤

Recruiting doctors and nurses from countries where there are major shortcomings in professional practices is dangerous 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩. What due diligence has the health minister undertaken and based on what comes to light, will they go through a re-orientation process? What may be acceptable and commonplace in one culture may be quite unacceptable here.

Girl you are just making a bag of nonsense talk, unno nu love Jamaican people 🔥

Miss lady Jamaicans want better for our country and politicians need to go to prison...so stop talking foolishness

You guys are very late, time for the JLP party to go 🚶‍♂️ .

Why the government important people from other countries to work in Jamaica 🇯🇲 on the young people in Jamaica 🇯🇲 want to work on want job

These short sighted POLITICIANS AGAIN we didnt learn from JPS now we suffering for it whats uwi, utech and ncu doing they build up china youths build our roads,bauxite say they need specialist we dont have. Heart need to cut back on training so much hospitality staff and fill the gap with more medical personel that can graduate to other levels TUFTON end the cycle of foreign eye looking elsewhere and build up US... TAKE CARE OF our own. STOP short term build long term solutions.

Uwi ncu and utech and heart need to STEP UP and SPEAK UP and lobby the government to fund some acclerated programs to use JAMAICANS to fill the gap... always with the aggrandizement and how we look. Breddah build we future we deh pon.

Y do we have a freaking Dentist running a Medical Portfolio (Softtun)

People have to wait at hospital/ER for hours right here in the US which is a developed country moreover poor Jamaica. Is because nuff a them no travel or have to go at one when they travel. I can attest to that. All 6or 7 hours in waiting room. So make them stay there a chat.

Should be a shame, get trainers, get teachers to come to Jamaica and train and teach Jamaicans and pay them little people say in Jamaica get the training in Jamaica

Bs,, train people in Jamaica , how many are there sitting without work , get them qualified, send them overseas to train , the government always finding ways on how to swindle money to benefit their pockets.

In big atlanta I went hospital 6:30 pm and leave 3am so some of us love to chat and make unnecessary mischief like is only now ppl a wait a hospital

Hold up misses suh wi cah sey button to unno anymore of what unno doing wrang. Suh we fe juss tek what unno wah de duh and sey to us? But a wah dis. Unno tun tin skin, unno couldn't survive during Manley and seaga day because unno wouda be run ova. Man unno leff de peeepl dem alone an duh unno jab

To Mr Andrew michael holness of on day of election you cannot challenge by deliver view s on the election you can be charged but into canvas both sides can relate about of freedom of expression concerned thanks you.

I have to say you Jamaican there all ways been long lines and waiting time when you go to hospital I know I was born in 1949 so know from when the English was ruling us so stop be so politically I know some you going to say this and that but the truth hurts

doctor morris really hit the nail on the head prime ministers do catch feelings god know prime minister have it hard

We want hospitals not more nurses. Imagine the tourism capital still don't have a proper hospital for years now with nothing concrete in sight. Why don't Jamaica reporters ever ask common sense questions

That woman is fool like Andrew just remember that he is a public figure so people will talk good and bad about him he is like a kid

i do go to traditional media to fact check bloggers like sir p especially when what he talks about makes mainstream news

The man is not a DR STOO calling him DR,e shud give a doctor his position

WE CAN'T STOP NURSES FROM BEING RECRUITED BY USA, UK, AND CANADA...ETC! SO, WE SHOULD ALSO RECRUIT FROM ABROAD WHERE THE QUALITY AND AVAILABILITY ARE NOT ISSUES!

No jcans gonna fact check anything yall need to pull those accounts

Tuftan a idiat they need to help pay tuition for our Jamaican that can't afford train

Long wait lines are every where at hospitals where I am I have to wait hrs to get attention and the population is very small..

Dr. Dana. Love your hair! Woman, guh seh your prayers lady and thank God it wasn’t worse. Look how many other ppl were impacted and grateful.

Does the USA recruit Phillipino nurses too?

Pipipinia who can't speak English

The kind of Jamaica we want is one without the Jamaica labour party.

Tks for the news in Jamaican

I need your help to find my niece

2 much talking n no action

Miss Morrison need to check him PM for all the misinformation that Andrew holiness come out an tell the jamaican people cause IT'S all there we're not blind.

THE INDIAN DOCTORS ARE NOT BAD BUT I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE NURSES.

The waiting time is still attrocious even with ..customer service facility put in place to help..and dont even start with (priority)..because I have first hand experience...Having history of blood clot.. I pressented with chest pain and took over an hour before the so call "triage"..

I loved to watch Jamaican’s News report. They are respectful to the culture. American ‘s reporters should take a clue from them.

You should shame you have to a hire from overseas
