This was contained in a statement issued by the Board’s Public Relations Officer, Samira Sulaiman, and made available to newsmen on Monday night.
The statement said the decision was taken as a matter of urgency due to the negligence of the affected staff in carrying out their duties by absconding from their duty posts and leaving patients in the hands of students.
The Executive Secretary warned that the Board would not condone negligence, late-coming, or absconding from duty posts from any medical worker, adding that anyone found wanting would face sanctions by the civil service rules and regulations.
It called on other hospitals to buckle up as all facilities would be monitored closely to revive the health sector of the state.
