More than 60 nurses at Bor Hospital in South Sudan’s Jonglei State left the profession since march because their ‘personal needs’ were not met, a senior health official said.
Abraham Gai, the director of Bor Hospital, told Radio Tamazuj on Monday that staff members at the health facility have gone unpaid for nearly seven months, adding that only four doctors remained in the health facility.
He noted that workers at the hospital receive between 500 to 2,400 SSP monthly, pointing out that they have gone unpaid for seven months.
Abraham appealed to the government to intervene.
