The medical center announced the development in a statement on Wednesday. Ijeoma is the first daughter of the late Dora Akunyili, former director-general of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) and ex-minister of information. “In her most recent role, Dr. Akunyili served as the Regional Medical Director for TeamHealth, Northeast Group, where she had strategic, operational, and clinical oversight of nearly twenty emergency departments, critical care, and hospitalist service lines in Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Pennsylvania,” the statement reads. “She led an unprecedented fourfold expansion of service lines with a specific focus on medical services and access to care for underserved populations. “Previously, Dr. Akunyili served as the chair of emergency medicine at Waterbury Hospital, a Level II trauma teaching hospital. There she was the change agent who led a dynamic team in dramatically reducing the lengths of stay, improving overall performance across multiple patient-centered metrics, and increasing physician staffing. “She was awarded the 2019 Medical Director of the Year Award for the impressive turnaround of the Waterbury Hospital Emergency Department. “In addition to her executive experience, Dr. Akunyili has vast leadership and advocacy experience, and is currently serving as the President of the Connecticut College of Emergency Physicians (CCEP). “Prior, she served for several years on the board of directors of Texas and Connecticut Colleges of Emergency Physicians. She was an Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine Houston, TX, and she is currently a Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine at Yale University.” #ijeomaakunyili #doraakunyili #chiefmedicalofficer #mycelebrityandi https://www.instagram.com/p/CnWIHvuIhJ9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Un hospital de Nueva Jersey y un grupo de anestesia están en los tribunales por desacuerdos sobre el personal y los acuerdos contractuales. Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center, un hospital de RWJBarnabas Health en Livingston, Nueva Jersey, alega que American Anesthesiology of New Jersey “crónicamente” carecía de personal en las instalaciones, lo que obligó a retrasar y cancelar cirugías y culpó a la escasez de mano de obra en toda la industria. La demanda del hospital en la corte estatal acusa a North American Partners in Anesthesia, la empresa matriz de capital privado de American Anesthesiology, de priorizar las ganancias sobre la atención al paciente. “En consonancia con su propósito general, generar tantos ingresos y ganancias como sea posible, North American Partners in Anesthesia está aprovechando esta escasez y la necesidad inquebrantable de servicios críticos de anestesia para enriquecer a sus patrocinadores de capital privado. Lamentablemente, North American Partners in Anesthesia parece estar dispuesto a crear una crisis de salud pública para proteger sus intereses comerciales”, dice la denuncia de Cooperman Barnabas. La demanda relata incidentes desde septiembre de 2021 hasta junio de 2022 cuando las cirugías se retrasaron o cancelaron porque no había proveedores de anestesiología disponibles. En uno de esos casos, Cooperman Barnabas asignó médicos residentes para llenar el vacío, según el hospital. El director de operaciones de North American Partners, el Dr. Rafael Cartagena, describió los cargos de la demanda como "completamente ficticios" y dijo que Cooperman Barnabas no tenía contrato con su empresa y no puede ser considerado responsable por la escasez de personal. “Todo lo que están tratando de hacer aquí es desacreditarnos”, dijo. American Anesthesiology había sido el proveedor exclusivo de anestesiología de Cooperman Barnabas durante años, pero nunca había tenido un contrato con el hospital, dijo Cartagena. North American Partners buscó un acuerdo con el hospital después de que adquirió American Anesthesiology en 2020, pero las partes no pudieron llegar a un acuerdo, dijo. North American Partners demandó a Cooperman Barnabas ya más de 30 médicos anestesiólogos y enfermeras anestesistas registradas certificadas el 25 de julio, el día antes de que el hospital presentara su demanda. El grupo de anestesiología alega que el hospital robó a sus trabajadores en contravención de sus acuerdos de no competencia. Cooperman Barnabas causó “la destrucción de [American Anesthesiology of New Jersey's] práctica médica en Livingston, Nueva Jersey, así como su incapacidad para cumplir con sus obligaciones de servicio en las ubicaciones de los clientes que no sean [Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center]”, afirma la demanda. Cooperman Barnabas se vio obligado a crear un departamento de anestesia interno y contratar a ex empleados de North American Partners “por necesidad”, escribió el hospital en su denuncia. “El volumen de pacientes que vemos diariamente requiere la disponibilidad inmediata de anestesiólogos calificados y enfermeras anestesistas registradas certificadas para brindar atención. Desafortunadamente, la compañía contratada para brindar estos servicios no ha podido satisfacer de manera consistente las necesidades de nuestro sistema y de los pacientes de manera oportuna”, dijo RWJBarnabas en un comunicado.
