LUCKNOW: 'Deficiencies' in the trauma care system snuffed life out of another person in the state capital when a 22-year-old quick commerce delivery partner succumbed to his head injuries after being ferried to four hospitals in a span of six hours on Monday evening. From the accident site, he was taken to the RMLIMS, KGMU, then to the SGPGI, and finally to a private hospital, but didn't get adequate treatment, alleged kin. He breathed his last in an ambulance en route what would have been the fifth ambulance trip of the night.

Each of the government hospitals cited different reasons as to why they were unable to treat the patient, who was allegedly not given care at their respective emergency wards.

Bike-borne Jatin Joshi had sustained a severe head injury after being hit by a speeding car at the Samta Mulak crossing. He was rushed to the nearest hospital, RMLIMS, where doctors began administering emergency care.

"My son was bleeding profusely...almost 8 to 10 doctors were treating him. I watched helplessly as doctors struggled to stop the bleeding. However, after some time, due to the severity of the head injury, they said that RMLIMS was not equipped to handle a complicated neurosurgery at that point of time. They suggested we go to the KGMU for that," said Poonam Joshi, mother of the deceased. Parents of the youth, Rakesh and Poonam Joshi, work as clerk at an apartment building and a house help, respectively.
