Despite recent mishaps in a few government hospitals, including incidents like a man dying after being asked to wait in line, exposure to the dire state of a government hospital, and the restriction of a senior citizen for wearing knee-length shorts, some government hospitals are still striving to improve patient care and services.
A video recently shared by a Facebook user featured a nurse assisting an elderly man with his meal, capturing the nation's heart. In the caption, the poster explained that the elderly man had weak limbs, making it difficult for him to use utensils properly. The nurse paused her tasks to help the patient, demonstrating a compassionate act.
The post quickly gained popularity on Facebook, with netizens expressing appreciation for the nurse's kind gesture. Many expressed their gratitude, acknowledging the positive change in government hospitals.
One user noted the transformation from the past when nurses were perceived as rude, highlighting the current concern for patient satisfaction.
The heartwarming video was filmed at Penang's government hospital.
