Bojan Požar published a message from an anonymous group of employees at UKC Ljubljana, which pointed out alleged psychological abuse and bullying at the Neurology Clinic, as well as threats to patient safety. Employees claimed that internal procedures following reports of bullying usually did not find violations, although a court is said to have confirmed with a final ruling that bullying was perpetrated by a person who later became the head of the clinical department. UKC Ljubljana is supposed to have paid compensation to the former employee from public funds. The group also mentioned alleged irregularities in evaluating work performance and assigning paid training and covering study costs. They claimed that some employees were treated more favorably than others in rewards and training. The most serious warning concerned the death of a patient. According to the employees, the patient was neither connected to a monitor nor given enhanced supervision, although she would have needed it given her condition. They noted that the incident occurred about two months prior, and management allegedly did not report it as an internal deviation or a warning dangerous event. A safety meeting was said to have been convened only in the week the message was published, after the employee reported the incident anonymously. Employees also claimed that access to information at the clinic is limited and called for action from the new management of UKC Ljubljana. #Zdravstvo #Mobing #VarnostPacientov (translated)
