This is one of the best community in Jamaica,see what they are protesting about advance of our society,not about duttie criminal murderers.
I'm not understanding the government's drive to build more hospitals when they're NOT servicing, maintaining and transforming those they already have. I'm not for one moment against more hospitals but make this make sense for me! How many more of our family and friends will have to die before the govt,. comes to the rescue of the poorer class?
I guess aesthetics are more important to the government than actually taking care of people. Everyone sees the shiny new buildings and highways, and they are lulled into a false sense of achievement because they think that progress is being made.
Meanwhile, the health sector is in shambles, the water situation is untenable, roads in rural communities are little more than tracks. But yes, build more hospitals that cater to medical tourism and ignore the Jamaican populace…🙄
@@johncbny this view is a true reflection of what is evidently taking place! Are others blind or totally out of touch with reality?
I commend the people of St Thomas. You guys are the only warriors in Jamaica. Unuh protest peacefully and let unuh voice be heard . I don't see this happening anywhere else in Jamaica. This is not the first protest I've seen in recent times . Continue to let your voices be heard.
Absolutely the worst hospital, I don’t even know why Princess Margaret is still operable, very useless place that needs to be shut down
WE FEE Talk up people .Health is wealth .1❤ 🇯🇲.
Grand job klarity flex its about time st Thomas people speak up Mr Bryan because of neglect and it's just too much on the poor people people
I appreciate this high performance protest. I want to see a better performance from this hospital and not a house of no return.
Im proud to see a peaceful protest and my people are voicing very legitimate concerns. My sincerest condolences to you all. Washy is my distant cousin as well . As a member of the diaspora I think the change needed has to be the responsibility of us all. As my batch mate Hubert said it is the only hospital in St Thomas to serve the community it is needed and a collective effort needs to be made with the government and many of us who live overseas can also form a coalition and raise funds to help in getting equipment and much needed supplies. Keep up the collective effort and let your voices be heard.
The 70s and 80s THE PRINCESS MARGARET HOSPITAL WAS A PLUS
The people of St Thomas are treated so bad by the two political parties in Jamaica..
St Thomas is treated like a st child in Jamaica.
Look at the road for years in st Thomas especially Cotton tree Port Morant..
The woman that go on party truck and lost her leg i know as we speak she is suffering because of her stupidity..
People of the Dispora lets make something happen bc ministry of health should be fired. This is a Tragic fail.
Whereas I agree with the protest, the third gentleman that spoke in the blue and white shirt delivered a message of partiality and nepotism! He keeps suggesting that Mr. Bryan should have been shown special treatment because he was a government official and he was friends with the hospital chairman. That's not the message that should be delivered, we want fair and impartial treatment for every single patient that enters this hospital. Government please spend some money and buy the necessary equipment to better serve the residents and patients who uses this hospital facility! It's the same thing at Spanish Town hospital, not even mi dog mi wouldn't carry there!
@@greatbill9106 Not sure if that's true. The last time I went there which was last week with my mother-in-law, most of the nurses and doctors there were Cubans, some of them barely able to speak English, so I doubt they are playing politics. They are probably demotivated because the facility is run down and in need of new equipment. In addition, the last compensation review by the government wasn't very encouraging, so many factors are at play here.
THIS HOSPITAL HAS GOTTEN WORST!
The government NEED to set up an organisation to monitor these services to expose their findings and charge them for unprofessionalism.
Mr Clarke i am a victim of that hospital
people needs to take care of there mental health and welbeing also,, politics at play here also,,
Changes so we can have a better health service, 🇯🇲 ST THOMAS 🇯🇲
How long ago Fenton Ferguson Gad it?
Which party most of those workers support?
Politics is a dirty game!
My people letting their voices be heard.. what a beautiful day.
There is also no facility for physiotherapy treatment. Yet patients who requires this treatment are referred to the physiotherapist at this institution.
It's long overdue. Big up health care for St. Thomas. All voices aboard
Suport you 💯💯💯..wake up people
❤well said miss
Until lawsuits are filed against the hospital and staff nothing will change
Talk truth lady the quality of service sucks at that hospital, if a councilor was treated that way what would happen to a poor farmer from up a bush. The can just kick down the road nobody step forward n take responsibility the culture just bad.
This condition at princess Margaret hospital has been like that since I was a child in jamaica.it happened to my father and brother at that hospital also and they died without any proper medical assistance or care.that happened in 70's and I am an adult now in 2024 and this is still going on. SHAME ON OUR GOVERNMENT in jamaica.as far as I see Jamaica has no real morals regarding poor and underprivileged, they are busy making jamaica look pretty but the morals shitty.
The gates were locked this morning open after 12. They were installing AC and stop registration today. 2 hrs. Before they started working They not taking proper care of the proper care of the sick
There is no maintenance taking place there. Friends and company wasting taxpayers money. People have to come from Kingston to fix things in the parish: Yallahs, Port Morant, Isaac Barrant, and Arcadia...etc!
While the politically motivated workers collect pay for doing nothing over the years!
Fenton started it! Now dem a bawl!
Jah jah star thos hospital weh me born just getting worse the way how they deal with washy and i remember how my uncle from port morant went out there because he was not feeling good and they says that he has covid and have him outside sitting in a wheelchair few days after he died 😢 💔

Thanks to you all for the good behavior!
🇯🇲👀🙆🆘☂️
Hello Flex .Prayers up for the needs of this facility...and it's patients.
What happened to the IMMEDIATE prodacal for blood thinners to be administered??? Strange...care....hmmmmm
So sad man...God knows it's hard to hear that this man lost his life over treatable illness so sad man kmt
This protest needed longtime
The hospital is not operating to save life for days you have to wait for tretment
Your children, grandchildren, neices, nephews, aunties, uncles and other close associate offer healthcare at the Princess Margaret Hospital. Play your role. Help to equip them early in life with the necessary humanitarian and work ethics skills. Consequently, Jamaica will become a place to LIVE, WORK, RAISE FAMILY and DO BUSINESS.
It is hard to accept the lost of a love one . Yes the hospital has its reputation of negligence but not all cases are neglectful. Great protest. You have to sleep beside your love ones and ensure u get answers every step of the way
RISE OH FORGOTTEN SOLDIERS OF THE GREAT AND MIGHTY PARISH 0F ST THOMAS. WE DESERVE SO MUCH BETTER. LETS BEGIN WITH AN MP WHO ISN'T A CITIZEN OF THE U.S.A WHO HAS ST THOMAS AS THEIR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY.
😢jah know mi bredren hopefully your untimely passing effects change,glad I saw you on my lat visit during the holidays
If is a big man in position they treat soh..u understand how the less fortunate been treated over the years..sad.
It’s about time
Look at the duty stinking PNP dem unno don't want noo good for st thomas eastern
This is unacceptable. Time to establish privatized urgent care facilities for st. Thomas. Seperate of these hospital. This is an atrocity. They are guilty of negligence. They should be closed down. They are of no benefit to the community
Every chance I get I go under Tufton page or in his inbox asking for medical reform and governing bodies to oversee standards of care in Jamaica. Too many people have died over simple medical conditions. Come on community I'm proud of you all for taking the initiative to protest for your rights!! 💪💪💪
Look how long the health care dam bad if Mr. Bryan never died no one would care. Well now him sacrfice fi better health care.
Good afternoon.
I few years ago when I was in Lower York visiting my Mother my husband took sick and we had to take him to this hospital my GOD the treatment was horrible. By the time he got admitted in the hospital god knows how long that took. So anyway the next day while he was in the ward he was having trouble with his drip he tried to get the nurse attention who was just sitting a few feet away from him when she a
decided to answer him she said could he not see that she was talking to her friend who had come to see her and she has the right to SOCIALISE. My husband asked her if he was in a HOSPITAL or CLUB she just looked at him and KISSED and took another 10mins to attend to him and in all this time his drip was leaking my god the attitude the nurses have is they think they are doing you a favour. I thing for sure if this was to happen again I will DEFINITELY not be going to this HOSPITAL
It must be down to the MANAGEMENT and where is the MINISTER SHE hiding again. Sorry to say SHAME on her she should have been there .
Any BIG U UP yet another excellent video BLESS YOU and keep up the GOOD 👍👍👍 WORK U doing.😊
They're playing politics!

So why a pure pnp a demonstrate?uno need fi move with the politics.
And since a PURE PNP that mean seh a PNP CARE for the people of St. Thomas
NO POLITICIAN NUH BUSINESS WID ST THOMAS
ITA LIKE NO ONE IN ST THOMAS NOT PAYING TAXES
Your own peeps working in the hospital and clinic are sabotaging the system.
IT'S CALLED POLITICS! SAD!
The time for visits is crappy. Early 630am amd late at 5pm...no tome in the day. Plus if you bring personal items out there...the workers steal it. Soap, wash pan, diapers,A&D aointment etc the workers take it
It's sad but it's true I am almost 28 years old , I was born , grow and live in ST Thomas all my life , and if I get sick I rather die on my way going to kingston rather than go to princess Margaret hospital. I have never been to that hospital 5 times in all my life, and I have been sick more than that. I don't even take my son there .
That hospital is terrible, my family member died there because of poor care.
This is true I went there with an asthma attack and nobody was there at the triage area to do a screening I had to wait hours for someone to tend to me 😢😢 mark I was audiabe wheezing could hardly breathe was crying due to chest pains I had no one to tend to me and it was an emergency 😢😢😢 this is so sad I could have died
That's so true
Princess Morgue Hospital....My Sister and My Bredren Son Died at PMH due to Lack of Care.
I was unprofessionally dealt with there about 2 Days before Washie. However, since I knew my rights, I was able to bluntly redirect the two unprofessional Doctors - thw2y claimed they were following the strict instructions of their Superior Dr. as to the approach of their Triage System.
Omg why no changes in this hospital for so many year's i am almost 60
What the…!! A pulmonary embolism is AN EMERGENCY!!
My daughter’s friend was going to Nigeria with her aunt. Due to the long flight, the aunt developed a blood clot in her leg which broke off and caused a pulmonary embolism. By the time the plane landed in Lagos, she was dead.

Years this been going on years
Yessssssss
This is what they vote for 😅😂
Look at them in there orange talking about it’s not about politics how many years has this been taking place all of a sudden you need change 😂😂😂
Thank you I have watched on numerous occasions where the former minister of health cut rebbions at St Ann hospital for kidney dialysis machines ecg machines and never st Thomas that made him the 7 star general people have been mistreated by some of the doc and nurses bule uniform porters because of poor status and not having a family member out at the hospital to render assistance so all of a sudden they breathing down someone's neck for generational mistreatment for years it had to take someone with money and political status to come protest kmdt me k it mek sense
i know similar cases
Were is CQC care Quality commission in matters like this 🤨
And her grandmother is the mother of the counselor for bath division Mattison
This is so freaking sad 😔
if it fixed during the past minister of health we wouldn't be having this now
Was there a reported problem to this extent then? The hospital wasn't perfect in its performance and services then but it has seriously deteriorated! What has caused this?
@@michaelottey3969 IT was brought to this during Fenton Ferguson reign!
# Morgue Closed
# Services scaled down
# PNP Workers sabotaging
# Health Centers Closed (Arcadia & Hagley Gsp) and others run-down (Isaac Barrant) for years.

Jamaica is a beautiful, backward place. Thats why am afraid to move back to that place.
We don't want you back here, who told you that you're welcome to come to our country?
You can stay where you are. We will get past this. The hospital blundered, they have two working ambulances according to Mr. Errol Green. The sad thing is that politics will play such a great part of the blame game.
@@normannicholas3722 Real talk brother, atleast we don't run away from how country, we try to build it
@@johncbny Its always broke people like you that leave the country, hard working people like me that's living a comfortable life have no reason to leave my country of birth.
Tbh me nuh like that hospital. Me stay far from that hospital me nuh sick worst hospital in Jamaica
YALLAHS HEALTH CENTER IS CLOSED AFTER THEY BISH IT UP
THAT HEALTH CENTER NEED TO BE EXPANDED
SINCE I WAS A CHILD THAT CLINIC WAS THERE ( A DIG OF MY AGE IS NOT A PUP)
AND THE CLINIC IS STILL THE SAME SIZE.
A PIECE OF LAND IS BESIDE THE CLINIC WHICH SHOULD BE BOUGHT N THE CLINIC EXTENDED
There is no need for more land! I understand that the owner of the lot next door was aproached and he refused to sell.
The Ministry of Health can build a two, three, or four storey building at the back.
Break down the foolishhess at the front and use the area for parking!
WITHOUT VISION WE PERISH!
TGE OATISH PAYING RENT TO CRONIES FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PERSONNEL.
SLACKNESS!
If you all know what is taking place with these people you would send them to belvue!
True man😢
Mek di people dem air dem grouse .....JCF go one side nuh man...kmt
Kimberly my little cousin pnp counselor for trinityvile her grandmother val from market road port morant boy t mother
It's about time someone does something about this facility some of the doctors and nurses there believe they are gods. Some horror stories I have heard about the behaviour of doctors here it's atrocious the way they behave towards human beings
Washy wife should be ashamed to come on public TV talking she should be at her husband side instead of living overseas and leave him alone to struggle with his heart condition in Jamaica shame on you wife
Yuh actually damn rude enuh. How come which part the woman want live concern you? She never live under yuh old fawt. She has every right to talk bout how them use politics and nuh care fi har husband. Yuh fava vom!t

Anyway, back to serious business!!
Jamaica needs cuban medical workers.

This is not a hospital. People i suggest you guys get together and create a health care center.
Big Clinic not Hospital
so bad even air lift
Biggest disgrace to jlp government
Fenton Ferguson was Minister of health for Years and the MP for St. Thomas eastern what the hell did he do??
Why u dont ask about Fenton's Ferguson who was Ministry of health for years & dont do anything
I am not going to him I am asking the jlp government what happened..St Thomas people didn't pay them taxes ...those doctors and nurses need to be fired..if you can't do your job leave. Them can't come to America and do that...please don't try me ok
Everything u all want to jump.on people..I am going to say it again this is BIGGEST DISGRACE IN THE PARISH OF ST THOMAS WITH THE RULING JLP GOVERNMENT IN POWER FOR OVER 8YRS NOW
@Sloopie685 how can he help the people of the parish when JLP government in power and withholding funds from the siting parish elected officials...you don't understand what's going on?
Suh if your husband never die their you and sum of those protester are run wid politics such a shame
Where is the "politics" in demanding changes for the better? Can know seh al you is a dutty labourite
Regardless the politics if someone never did this things would be still noticed
It is good that SHE is calling for the change. Many other people wanted to do it but felt powerless. It is now time for a change.
So why is it strange that she is calling out the facility after her husband died?
Most, if not all of us, do the same thing; we don’t pay attention to something until it affects us personally.
Said it morgue 💯
I support this move 150%
My died in the same manner. Complete negligence.. I need to see the change
Answer is simple stop go over deh!
@@johncbny So what is them problem? Them acting like them can go and build them own and from what i know the best doctors and service is over there!
@@johncbnyThat is your bias opinion, im talking facts!😂 As we all know it was updated.😂😂😂Please go to public!
@@johncbny As you say you dont have any stake so dont talk about what you dont know, and if i knew you didnt know what you talking about from start i wouldnt reply.
This is pure politics
Someone died and this is what you have to say? No sympathy? No empathy? How cruel can you be?
Well he was a politician, so…!!
He’s also dead, and I think people are extremely upset about the circumstances surrounding his death. So if that involves a little politics, then so be it.
The man laid there for hours in an emergency situation, and no medical personnel looked at him. That’s what should concern you.
The money that was spent on the lavish fire works not one 2 the piece a iron that was placed in the town at mordant Bay could a bought that same machine and ambulance so tell me how that go kmdt the workers them their full is another story so please
People are entitled to an active social life. The people needed the fireworks and the arm of Government that did the fireworks and erected the clock in the town is different from who is responsible for ensuring proper health care. There is local government, and then there is central government. Educate yourself before you come online talking nonsense
I don’t propose to know anything about what goes on in Jamaica in general, and St. Thomas in particular, having left Jamaica decades ago.
But to conflate the cost of the fireworks display with the cost of medical machinery/ambulance, is unfair, unnecessary and nonsensical.
How much did the fireworks cost? Do you really think it comes close to the cost of medical equipment or an ambulance?
An ambulance costs at least US$125,000
A CT scanner costs at least US$300,000
An MRI machine costs about US$500,000.
Sad and scary. It was depressing hearing Mrs. Bryan describe how her husband was not seen by anyone for hours with such a serious condition. And the former mayor described it well as being a big clinic instead of a hospital. The government can and should do better. Proud of how everyone expressed themselves.
