“Yes, all mothers are collecting their babies at this moment,” the spokesperson for the Gauteng Department of Health Kwara Kekana, told the Saturday Star, late yesterday afternoon.
On the day that the child was finally discharged, the mother saidshe received a call from the hospital asking her to check if the baby still had a drip in its left leg. There she claimsed the nursing staff were nonchalant about the incident and said it was a mistake.The mother said while she was at the hospital she met the mother of the child that was mistakenly given to her. The woman, she said, was so in shocked she couldn’t speak.
“The one name tag is removed and placed with the baby’s file and the other name tag is kept on the baby’s foot for a week while at home. This explains why the babies came back with name tags still on them,” said Kekana.
