Tony Goodman, the PRO for the Ministry of Health, has sparked reactions online after describing nurses who failed to secure slots on the recruitment portal as not smart so obviously they’re “dumb.”
The statement comes amid growing frustration among nurses and midwives over challenges faced during the ongoing recruitment process.
Many applicants have complained about the portal crashing, limited vacancies, and difficulties accessing the system before slots got filled.
Following the comment, several social media users and health workers criticized the Ministry official, describing the remark as insensitive and disrespectful to qualified nurses who have been struggling to gain employment.
