Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen step out in coordinated black looks for New York stroll Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen made a rare joint appearance in New York City, stepping out together for a relaxed afternoon in matching, understated fashion. The 39-year-old twins were seen walking through Midtown Manhattan on April 30, dressed in coordinated black trench coats paired with wide-leg denim. They completed the look with sunglasses, scarves, and structured alligator handbags from their luxury label, The Row, before stopping for lunch during their outing. Long before becoming fashion insiders, the sisters built global recognition as child actors through projects like Full House, It Takes Two, and New York Minute. Over time, they stepped away from Hollywood and fully transitioned into fashion, officially launching The Row in 2005.

… Set to Introduce Policy to Regulate Foreign-Based Transient Medical Doctors


The Health Facility Monitoring and Accreditation Agency (HEFAMAA) has shut Vedic Lifecare Hospital for engaging unlicensed expatriates.


The Executive Secretary of the Agency, Dr. Abiola Idowu, who made the disclosure in her office in Alausa, Ikeja, explained that the hospital located at Plot 6, Olabanji Olajide Street, Lekki, was sealed for engaging expatriate staff who have not been certified to practice locally.


“The facility was shut down for engaging three foreign doctors and a nurse with unverified certificates and without licenses from any professional body”, she explained.


She, however, stated that the closure of the hospital does not affect the in-patients already admitted, stressing that the Agency is aware that some facilities are engaging Foreign-Based Transient Medical Doctors (FBTMD) who come into the State, stay for a period of time to provide medical care to patients and perform medical procedures before returning to their respective countries.


Also speaking, the Chairman, HEFAMAA Governing Board, Dr. Yemisi Solanke-Koya, noted that the practice raises consequential concerns regarding the regulatory oversight of healthcare in the State.


The concerns, according to her, focus on whether the facilities where the FBTMDs provide medical care are registered with and meet the standards required by HEFAMAA; whether the FBTMDs themselves possess the requisite credentials and experience required to practice the designated specialities they travel to the State for and whether the provisions made for the realm of continuity of care of the patients when the FBTMDs leave the State meet the standard of care.


The Chairman warned that hospitals in Lagos should desist from using foreigners whose certificates and licenses have not been verified by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN).


She, however, indicated that the Commissioner for Health, Professor Akin Abayomi, has directed the Agency to implement an FBTMD policy that will ensure that FBTMDs are approved by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria to practice medicine in the country, adding that such approval must be submitted and duly registered with HEFAMAA prior to commencement of medical practice in the State to safeguard the health, safety and welfare of Lagosians and hold the facilities engaging FTDMBs accountable.
