In the letter sent to Speaker Abdul Raheem Abdulla, Ibrahim wrote that Maldivians and expatriates who are ill and taken to hospitals and health centers do not have caregivers. He also wrote that nurses and ward attendants need to care for such individuals.

Ibrahim stated that some without caregivers are those who cannot even go to the bathroom by themselves.

Ibrahim highlighted in the letter the issues that crop up when no caregivers are present for those who are admitted into hospitals and health centers.

Ibrahim highlighted various other issues and requested the relevant parties at the Gender Ministry and the Home Ministry to attend the Committee on Social Affairs to be questioned.
