Prosecutors have launched an investigation into the unauthorized use of a morgue coordinator\u2019s seal to forge death certificates at Warsaw\u2019s Szpital Po\u0142udniowy while the official was on vacation. <\/p>\n
The investigation covers the period between August 22 and September 9, 2025. It centers on the falsification of 20 death certificates, where an unauthorized person applied the morgue coordinator\u2019s stamp and forged his signature.<\/p>\n
The case was triggered by a report from the morgue coordinator himself, who discovered the abuse after receiving a call from the Civil Registry Office regarding a missing death certificate that he had been unable to process during his holiday.<\/p>\n
Prosecutor Piotr Antoni Skiba confirmed that the hospital is currently under intense scrutiny, with 32 separate proceedings initiated between January 1, 2023, and June 24, 2026. This specific case is being treated as distinct from two other recent investigations into irregularities at the hospital’s Emergency Department (SOR), which involve allegations of fraud and abuse of public office.<\/p>\n
Multiple oversight bodies, including the Medical Council, the National Health Fund (NFZ), and the National Labour Inspectorate (PIP), are conducting inspections at the facility. The Ministry of Health has also ordered audits following allegations regarding the conduct of former SOR coordinator Dawid Kacprzyk.<\/p>\n
The facility is also dealing with the aftermath of claims made by former department head Emil J\u0119drzejewski, who alleged medical malpractice and procedural failures. While J\u0119drzejewski remains under investigation for his statements, his successor, Dr. Piotr Szenk, has publicly rejected these claims, stating that the emergency unit functioned correctly during his tenure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
