Berhampur: The services in MKCG Medical College and Hospital at Odisha’s Berhampur city were affected as house surgeons and nursing staff boycotted their duty after clash in the campus on Saturday.
According to sources, the dispute started after a house surgeon asked one of the nursing staff to get the blood of a critically ill patient in the casualty ward tested in the pathology laboratory on Friday. As the nurse reportedly denied to carry out the doctor’s direction, a verbal exchange of words ensued between the two.
