The Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre has launched a formal review following concerns raised on social media about the care and treatment of a patient and their family, according to Antigua News Room.
In an official statement, the hospital said it takes all concerns related to patient safety, quality of care, and professional conduct seriously.
While citing patient confidentiality and privacy obligations as preventing it from discussing specific cases publicly, the institution confirmed that a thorough review of the patient's full timeline of care is currently underway.
Hospital administrators added that they will contact the affected family directly to ensure their concerns are heard and addressed as part of the review process.
The Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre stated that it remains committed to providing safe and compassionate care and will take any necessary steps to ensure its standards are upheld.
