Large number of patients coming to PGI Emergency were referred even though the patients could be medically managed at the referring hospitals and health care facilities, the PGI spokesperson said. The increased number of patients adversely affects the workload on doctors and the rest of the staff, the spokesperson said. It also resulted in excessive workload on investigative, diagnostic and therapeutic facilities of PGI emergency. |
