Longisa Hospital Flagged for mixing expired and usable drugs!
Longisa County Referral Hospital reportedly stored expired drugs alongside usable ones, posing a serious risk to patient safety.
A Senate audit has uncovered alarming mismanagement at Longisa County Referral Hospital, where expired drugs have been mixed with usable ones, posing a serious risk to patients. Lawmakers also exposed massive financial irregularities, revealing that the hospital has been operating without an approved budget.

The lack of accountability has raised concerns over the quality of healthcare services provided at the facility, with patients and stakeholders demanding urgent reforms.
The audit findings have intensified scrutiny on the county’s healthcare management, with calls for swift action to address the hospital’s financial mismanagement and ensure patient safety.
