The Democratic Nursing Organisation of
South Africa said it is concerned about the shortage of health workers as the
festive season is upon us and road deaths tend to increase.
Denosa Spokesperson Sibongiseni Delihlazo
said more accidents on the roads mean that far too many people become critical
in our facilities almost at the same time with few nurses and doctors to take
care of them.
Delihlazo has urged South Africans to drive
safely during these holidays because there is a shortage of healthcare
professionals.
“Especially in the Eastern Cape at this time of
the year many people are heading there and health facilities cannot manage with
the amount of people needing medical care” Delihlazo added.
