The Gauteng Department of Health wishes to inform the public that the process to move patients from Life Esidimeni to NGOs and psychiatric hospitals is now complete.
According to information at our disposal, all NGOs are capable of taking care of patients. MEC Mahlangu visited two NGOs and was satisfied with the conditions as well as the level of care and she plans to visit other NGOs in future.
Gauteng Health MEC, Ms Qedani Mahlangu said: “We wish to assure the public that all minor issues of concern are currently being attended to and should be resolved in due course. We call upon family members who might have concerns about patient transfer to interact directly with the Department.”
