Pretoria - No patient has been mistreated or forced to sleep on the floor at Dr George Mukhari Academic Hospital, the Gauteng Health Department has said.
Kekana said the operational ward designated for Covid-19 patients had 15 beds for patients under investigation. Due to the small number of beds in the ward, Kekana said other patients under investigation and confirmed positive cases were accommodated in isolated cubicles in various wards. “The hospital is working hard to wrap up construction of the other renovated wards that will result in the availability of 350 beds for Covid-19 patients.”
