Tembisa Hospital makes a plea for patients

TEMBISA - Tembisa Hospital is requesting residents to kindly assist it to find relatives of patients currently admitted at the hospital.

The hospital’s spokesperson Lesibana Ledwaba said, “We are looking for families of Pauline Mbatha, Enock Khaola, Abigail Mkhabela and Njabulo Zulu. We do not have information of where they are from and hope someone will recognise them,” Ledwaba said.

Ledwaba also said the hospital needed help with finding families of the deceased at the mortuary. “A couple of weeks ago we published names of the deceased in the Midrand Reporter, asking members of the public to help us identify them or their families, but no one has came forward,” Ledwaba said.

“The hospital mortuary keeps the deceased for up to three months while waiting for family members to come and claim the bodies, if they are not claimed for a long time, the deceased are given a paupers burial.

“We would like to encourage residents to come and collect bodies of the deceased if contacted by the hospital so that their loved ones can be laid to rest by family members.”
