The Democratic Alliance has called on the President to immediately intervene into the crisis surrounding the training of nurses. This after at least one-hundred-and-fourteen applications for nursing colleges was rejected.
DA spokesperson for health, Mike Waters said that the minister should have put a monotorium of the number of nursing colleges in the country. “This is resulting in that the nurses cannot be trained given the fact that we have over 46 000 vacancies in the public sector.”
Waters also said the regulations for some of the nursing colleges have not been developed after 4 and half years. “Given the severity of the shortage of nurses that we face in the country, the minister should have fast tracked these regulations.”
