The Health Ministry says PAHO has completed its in-country Mission of the Review of the Incident at the Port of Spain General Hospital.

A three member team has been investigating the recent deaths of babies at the Hospital’s Neonatal ICU.

PAHO met today with senior officials of the Ministry and the North West Regional Health Authority to conduct a debriefing exercise arising from the mission, which took place from April 22nd to 26th.

The Ministry says the PAHO review will continue, which will lead to the preparation of a final report to be submitted, pending the completion of PAHO’s internal processes.

In the interim, the Ministry say it and the NWRHA will continue to work with PAHO to facilitate the completion of the independent review.
