MEC Botha said the medical staff is doing a great job however more needs to be done to improve long waiting period and staff attitudes need to change. 

Ministerial Spokesperson Helene Rossouw said he specifically visited the emergency centre to see if the patient were in a good state.

“It was not an unusual day and he was quite impressed to see the hospital treating more patients than expected. The trauma centre had 150 patients,” Rossouw added.
