30 years of disinvestment in healthcare hurting service delivery, says Holness

The disinvestment in healthcare over the past 30 years has resulted in significant challenges to service delivery in Jamaica, according to Prime Minister Andrew Holness. The Prime Minister made this assertion during his address at the National Honours and Awards ceremony in Kingston.

Holness stated that the country’s healthcare system has been plagued by inefficiencies and a lack of resources. He emphasized the need for a revamped approach to address the current state of the sector. The Prime Minister’s comments have sparked a renewed debate on the need for a more effective healthcare system in Jamaica.

The Jamaican government has been under pressure to address the country’s healthcare challenges, with many calling for increased investment and reform. The Prime Minister’s remarks suggest that the government is taking steps to address these concerns.
