RSUTH Refutes Negligence Allegations Over Patient Care

The Rivers State University Teaching Hospital (RSUTH) responds to claims by Mr. Ide Aaron Anyanwu regarding alleged neglect of his daughter on April 10, 2024. While we sympathize with the family’s ordeal, several points must be clarified. Upon referral, the patient was immediately received by our Accident and Emergency team. She received prompt intensive care under our 24-hour emergency service. The suggestion of a five-hour wait or an intoxicated doctor is unfounded and contradicts RSUTH’s strict professional standards. Claims that donated blood was diverted or sold are also incorrect. RSUTH enforces regulated procedures for blood handling, storage, testing, and administration to ensure patient safety and transparency. We encourage the public to verify all concerns through official channels before drawing conclusions. RSUTH remains committed to ethical, patient-centered care and is ready to address legitimate issues through proper review procedures.
