Episode Details

Suzette Buchanan, CEO of Bellevue Hospital, is demanding accountability and compassion after her daughter Toni-Ann Kirlew, visiting from Australia, was told to “wheel yourself” while visibly struggling with severe pain due to an autoimmune condition. Though the nurses and doctors who treated her were kind, Buchanan condemns the lack of basic human support from a technician — arguing that no patient should leave a hospital feeling traumatized by their treatment. She’s calling for systemic change to ensure healthcare in Jamaica isn’t just clinical, but deeply empathetic.
