Gauteng patients suffer from NEHAWU disruptions
8 March 2023
The Democratic Alliance condemns NEHAWU’s disruptive actions at more than ten Gauteng public hospitals as well as many clinics.
Patients are suffering as they cannot get access to hospitals where surgery and appointments are cancelled due to the shortage of staff.
It is particularly despicable that some emergency services have been blocked as well.
Health facilities that are badly affected include the Helen Joseph, Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg, Chris Hani Baragwanath, Thelle Mogoerane, Tembisa, Bheki Mlangeni, Kopanong, Sebokeng, Heidelberg, Leratong and Carletonville hospitals.
