The St. Philip Polyclinic at Six Roads, St. Philip is presently undergoing industrial cleaning and will remain closed today, after the doors were shut yesterday, to start the process.
The Ministry of Health and Wellness has apologised for any inconvenience caused.
Reports reaching the Barbados Advocate are that employees there walked off the job yesterday, citing a number of environmental issues, which they said need to be addressed.
NUPW Acting General Secretary Delcia Burke who spoke over the airwaves, said that not only were concerns expressed about the limited number of maids available to facilitate cleaning at the polyclinic, but there were also concerns about issues with rodents, amongst other matters and they were being looked into.
