ATTLEBORO â For at least the second time this year, city first responders say they have run into bureaucratic mire at Sturdy Memorial Hospital in regard to getting a test for coronavirus â and the police chief is blasting the health care facility.
The latest episode came after police officers responded last Friday to the hospital to protect doctors, nurses and others from an unruly patient who could not be controlled by the hospitalâs security force.
A day later, that patient tested positive for coronavirus and Police Chief Kyle Heagney said the hospital âflat out said noâ when he requested coronavirus tests for the four officers who had to deal with the troublesome patient in a small, enclosed space.
