KANO — Due to professional misconduct and poor service, the Kano State Private Health Institutions Management Agency (PHIMA) has sealed off Green-Olives Hospital, Gadon Kaya, Gwale local government area.

Abba Dalha, spokesperson of the agency in a statement said the agency has received a petition that the facility has recorded two death cases in the last six months.

The statement said: “After thorough investigation, the agency found that the hospital does not undertake proper investigation nor issue consent form to patients before conducting a surgery.

“The surgeon is found to be doing the task of anesthetic nurse, perioperative nurse, and assistant surgeon which is grossly unethical.

 “The surgeon is not inclined to any specialty of surgery as one of the recorded death cases was a Pediatric surgery to a three-year-old child, while the second death was Obstetrics and gynecology surgery.”
