Mandeville Regional Hospital gets new lab

Commencing next year, surgical specimens and biopsies for patients at the Mandeville Regional Hospital will no longer have to be sent to Cornwall Regional Hospital for processing, following the opening of the Histopathology Laboratory on Thursday. This is expected to significantly reduce waiting time for test results, and will serve the parishes of Clarendon, Manchester and St Elizabeth. The laboratory was built through the collaborative effort of the Lions Club of Mandeville, the Culture, Health, Arts, Sports and Education (CHASE) Fund and the Southern Regional Health Authority (SRHA). Minister of Health and Wellness Dr Christopher Tufton thanked the partners for their joint effort, dating back to 2017, which mobilised more than $80 million towards the delivery of the lab.

Guy says Tufton should accept blame for delays at CRH

Dr Morais Guy Shadow Minister of Health and Wellness, the People’s National Party’s (PNP) Dr Morais Guy has accused the Minister of Health and Wellness, Dr Christopher Tufton, of trying to shift the blame for the protracted delays in completing restoration work at the Cornwall Regional Hospital (CRH) in St James to incompetent local contractors. Recently, Tufton said he will have to look overseas for the requisite expertise in order to get the job done. However, Guy is having none of that. Rather, the opposition spokesman is insisting that Tufton “erred when he ascribed blame for the delay in the rehabilitation of the CRH on the lack of capacity and technical know-how of the local contractor and in urging a case for foreign expertise”.
