NAVI MIMBAI: The former corporator and chairperson of the civic health committee, Raju Shinde, has questioned the NMMC over its latest order to transfer 20 nurses from the municipal hospitals to Dr DY Patil Hospital in Nerul for taking care of Covid patients. Sinde has written to the civic body that this move will create a shortage of nursing staff in the Airoli and Nerul civic hospitals. It is not a wise move to shift our senior municipal nurses from the Airoli and Nerul civic hospitals to a private hospital. Why can t the new medical recruits be posted to Dr D Y Patil hospital for this purpose? The nursing staff are also not happy by this decision of NMMC, said Shinde.
