PREMIER NDLOVU PAYS SURPRISE VISIT TO HOSPITALS IN BUSHBUCKRIDGE


01 January 2025

The Mpumalanga Premier, Mr. Mandla Ndlovu has expressed satisfaction about the state of the two hospitals he visited on New year, in Bushbuckridge. He undertook the surprise visit for monitoring both at Mapulaneng and Tintswalo hospitals.

The Premier interacted with patients. “I am happy because there were no long queues, as nurses were helping the patients. Most patients I spoke to at both hospitals said they were being attended to and the waiting period was reasonable,” said the Premier.

Mr. Ndlovu expressed concern about the dispensaries at the hospitals, that they were not fully functional. He says this requires a special attention. “I will engage with the MEC for Health, Ms. Sasekani Manzini to ensure that this matter of dispensaries is attended to, even on public holidays,” reiterated the Premier.

Mr. Ndlovu says he will embark on similar surprise visits to various hospitals across the province as these will help government to improve service delivery to communities.
