Danijel Bešič Loredan, the head of the Nova Gorica general hospital’s orthopaedic ward, received a termination due to his opposition to moving patients from his ward to expand the hospital’s capacities for Covid-19 patients.
He said the management had closed the ward three times in two years, while there had been no talks in the summer on what to do with Covid patients should the situation deteriorate. The management said legal proceedings were initiated against the doctor because he jeopardised the hospitals’s ability to cope with the epidemic.
