Eastern Cape Health MEC, Sicelo Gqobana, visited a psychiatric hospital in Queenstown this week. There he found patients infected with lice, as “warm water was not available.” For the same reason, I suppose, the wards were found to be “dirty and smelling of urine.” Some patients were even sleeping naked on the floor due to “linen shortages.” But when Gqobana looked in the cupboards, guess what he found? Clean and unused linen along with cleaning supplies!

Some people are just really horrible human beings.

Those found to be in charge were handed letters of intended suspension. They are the Komani Psychiatric Hospital manager, Mandisa Oliphant, and the stores supervisor, Khanyisa Panga. Both have been charged with dereliction of duties and misconduct, and have until today to give reasons as to why they should keep their jobs.
