Health Correspondent, Jacqueline Ogoh, reports that it was a gathering of retired nurses, but not tired as they said and apex nurses of the 26 General Hospitals, under the Lagos Health Service Commission, as well as top government officials.
The retired nurses who maintained they still have a lot they can contribute to government policies and programmes through consultations and official appointments, had, yet more guiding words, for younger nurses.
Asked if there are adequate penalties for nurses who divert hospital drugs for sale to make personal gains, Government representatives spared no word, on disciplinary actions, against culprits.
