Residents in Rooiwal near Vioolsdrift on the Namibian border are without a clinic. The only clinic in their area was vandalised almost two years ago.

The only clinic in their area was vandalised almost two years ago. Promises to refurbish the building have still not been fulfilled by the Northern Cape Health Department.

The only healthcare facility for residents here was badly damaged. For proper healthcare, the sick must now travel hundreds of kilometres.“I can’t get to the other hospital. I also can’t be transported with any vehicle; I must be transported on a stretcher because there is no stretcher. They transported me with outpatient transport. I’m still waiting for someone to attend to this. Yesterday I had to take off the bandage because it is getting dirty.

The Northern Cape Health Department says it is aware of the history of issue and has promised to attend to the infrastructure problem in this financial year. “So in terms of the infrastructure issues, the implementing agents in this regard is the Department of Public Works of which we have done some requests and submitted relevant documentation in line with the scope of work that needs to be attended to. So we are just in a way of following up just to make sure that before the end of this financial year, that facility should be operational,” Northern Cape Health Department’s Lebogang Majaha.

Despite promises to restore the damaged clinic, there is no fixed deadline for when the work will be completed and the clinic reopened.
