The Health Ministry shut down the Golf Specialized Hospital in Heliopolis yesterday over what it says are “life threatening” violations, Al Masry Al Youm reports. The alleged violations include failing to meet infection control requirements in operation theaters and the ICU. The inspectors also found that the hospital stores expired medications and uses loaded syringes without an expiry date. If that wasn’t enough, the allegations include the hospitals not ventilating its waste disposal room properly and hiring an unlicensed pharmacist.
