Permanent secretary in the ministry, Dunstan Bryan, yesterday confirmed that “amid the crisis they were in”, the management of Andrews Memorial had telephoned him around 11:30 p.m. on April 23 to see if he “could facilitate their engagement with Victoria Jubilee Hospital (VJH)”.
“So, when I was contacted by Andrews Memorial, it was to facilitate the transfer of the patient to the Victoria Jubilee Hospital.
When contacted, Caroline Hay, attorney for Andrews Memorial, declined to discuss the issues raised in the telephone conversation between her client and the permanent secretary because of the ongoing investigations, but said the management of the hospital was willing to speak publicly on the incident “and has something very important to say”.
Green-Haughton disclosed that she was on the phone with her other daughter, Shanice, who was with Jodian at Andrews Memorial on April 23.
