A video from GMC Anantnag has gone viral showing attendants accusing doctors of negligence after a patient’s death. The clip features claims that unidentified injections caused a fatal reaction, with the attendant alleging: “Doctors ran away when his condition worsened.” The hospital has initiated a probe into the allegations.
GMC Anantnag’s statement reveals the patient had acute pancreatitis with multi-organ failure and a history of substance abuse. Officials confirmed the patient displayed aggressive behavior, complicating treatment, but received protocol-based care including intubation and CPR. The hospital denied negligence claims while acknowledging the death.
Post-mortem, some attendants allegedly vandalized hospital property, forcing SICU staff evacuation. The administration warned against unauthorized social media posts while promising action if lapses are found. This incident follows recent similar allegations at the facility, highlighting systemic patient-doctor tensions in Kashmir’s healthcare system.
A medical board will review the case as authorities balance accountability with protection of medical staff. The hospital reiterated its complaint redressal mechanism, urging families to avoid social media trials. Police may file counter-charges for property damage.
