The Democratic Nursing Organisation of South Africa has labelled unfair and mischievous the move by private hospital groups in submitting an inquiry into the Private Health high costs.

Denosa President Simon Hlungwani in a statement said private hospitals need to close shop if their business models are solely based on underpayment of health professionals who are the engine of their core business.

He said that what they are doing and saying is just to undermine Nurses and we do know that, they continue to use elementary staff to conduct nursing duties, which is contravening and compromising nursing care.

“We call upon them to develop those people, instead of complaining and contravening, what is available in the law.” Hungwani said.
