The United Nurses Association (UNA) which has been on an agitation against the management of Nyle Hospital, Kaiparambu, for the last six days demanded urgent intervention of the Chief Minister and the Health Minister in the issue on Tuesday.
The nurses of private hospitals in Thrissur district have been protesting against an alleged assault on staff of the hospital, including a pregnant nurse, by Dr. V.R. Aloke, managing director of Nyle Hospital, recently.
According to UNA sources, Dr. Aloke allegedly assaulted a few staff members of the hospital during a consensus talk in connection with the decision of the hospital to dismiss six workers. The discussion was called by the district labour officer.
