LASUTH in Crisis: How APC Neglect Turned a Centre of Healing into a Place of Death and Delay

What should be a hub of healing and innovation now feels like a waiting room for tragedy. Broken equipment, staff shortages, and poor maintenance have left families fearing a referral more than seeking recovery. This decline did not happen overnight. Budget cuts, policy failures, and a lack of urgency from the state government have pushed LASUTH into this crisis. When a premier hospital sinks into dysfunction, it reflects a deeper neglect of human life.
