But this decision has been criticised by the Kosovo University Clinical Hospital Service, which has called the decision meaningless. The USKKUK has also condemned the attack on journalists reporting on this problem. But representatives of the hospital “isa Grezda”, media reporting on this problem, have called it biased.
The “Isa Grezda” hospital in Gjakova is continuing to provide only essential and urgent services. At this regional hospital, where services require thousands of patients, the management's decision on reducing operations continues to remain in force, in addition to emergency operations, because they say, lack of staff, with particular emphasis on anesthesiologists.
On this very subject, a team of journalists reporting Wednesday was attacked by hospital security, which prompted reactions by the Kosovo Journalists' Association.
A response came also from the Kosovo Clinical and University Hospital Hospital Service Steering Board, which warned the move taken after the attack. They call the Gjakova Hospital's decision to quit meaningless, respectively, to reduce work in operational halls. Moreover, SKKKUK condemns the action of hospital employees, who prevented the free work of journalists and media, guaranteeing and offering full co-operation with media and journalists. The report reportedly has not been aware of the prevention of journalists until the publication of the video by the media.
Soon steps to be taken at the Gjakova Hospital will be made public.
On the other hand, hospital representatives “isa Grezda”, media reporting on this problem, have called it biased.
Kosovo Police spokesman for the Gjakova region, Sheremet Elezaj, reports the extent of the ban on hospital security worker, Rtk reports.
At the same time, it is still not known when full health services will be returned to this hospital.
