The Health Services Organization is facing serious issues due to its dealings with contractors and delays in public contracts. At Larnaca Hospital, patients are being treated in makeshift beds in corridors due to ongoing construction work. The parliamentary Health Committee is demanding explanations for these delays, warning of strong public reactions if the project is not completed soon. Additionally, shortages and long waits in the Accident and Emergency Departments are causing significant problems for patient care.
