Mpumalanga Health Dept appoints 600 intern doctors

The Mpumalanga Health Department hopes the deployment will reduce challenges patients face when they need health care services.

The Mpumalanga Health Department is taking steps to change and improve healthcare services. 600 intern doctors are now reporting for duty around the province. The department hopes this deployment will reduce the challenges patients face when they need health care services. South Africa’s public health care has a reputation of giving poor service. Long queues, shortage of staff and sometimes inadequate infrastructure are some of the known challenges. But all that may change.

Fresh from university, the young doctors will fill gaps, especially in remote parts of the province. Intern Doctor, Dr Panashe Furusa says that they are looking forward to serving communities. “I am very passionate and excited to make a difference in people’s lives and be able to impact them through physiotherapy. I am very excited to make sure all the people in the community and within rural areas are able to get good health care.”“I am hoping to help a lot of people with hearing problems and maybe open a new screening at Matikwana hospital as there are not a lot of facilities or equipment there.

Where are there 600 interns sitting around? Did they just appear out of mid-air? Or is this the Marxist 'deployment' of doctors that is achieved by holding back their professional registration?
