Fuel up to standard – GuyOil
The Guyana Oil Company Limited, (GuyOil), has noted with grave concern an outrageous article published on Saturday, February 9, 2019, by Guyana Times “Questions Mount over the quality of GuyOil fuel.”
GuyOil categorically rejects the reckless conjecture contained in the article and wishes to reassure its customers and the general public that fuel sold by the Company is subjected to rigorous quality control tests and is certified to have met all required specifications.
Contrary to the claims made by the article, GuyOil has not received any reports from its customers or franchise holders which indicate that they have experienced any challenges in the operation of their vehicles as a result of fuel purchased from its Service Stations.
GuyOil has instructed its lawyers to begin legal action against the editors and publisher of GuyanaTimes for the unsubstantiated accusation leveled against the Company. (DPI)
NEWS-IN-DEPTH – FRIDAY FEBRUARY 08, 2019
The search is on for a new CEO to manage the New Amsterdam hospital
The reign of the acting CEO of the New Amsterdam hospital was cut short following a decision to revamp the facility by the Ministry of Public Health.
Samantha Kennedy took that position three months ago and was faced with repeated complains and protests about the systems she had put in place.
One of the systems had patients filling out a four-page form before treatment was administered. At that point, it was noted that that system will help with better record keeping. However; it just meant a longer waiting period for patients.
Jevaugh Stephens Director of Medical Services in region six confirmed Kennedy’s removal.
The decision was taken following a meeting with health officials from Georgetown and the regional officials to have the position filled permanently.
Prior to that decision Regional Chairman, David Armogan called for the hospital to revert to its old system since the one Kennedy implemented created additional hardship for patients seeking medical care.
Kennedy was acting in the capacity after Colin Bynoe’s contract was not renewed.
Meanwhile, this newscast understands that the hospital is also working to fill over 100 vacancies currently available in the health care system in the region.
The mortuary at the hospital remains out of use and works will begin soon to construct a new one according to health officials in the region.
