Madam Deputy Speaker, the ANC will continuously make every effort to improve service delivery to society through enhanced public infrastructure, efficient service and the requisite personnel.
On Friday, 16 September 2009, the North West MEC for Health and Social Development, Rebecca Kasienyane, opened a newly revitalised accident emergency trauma unit at the Job Simankane Tabane Hospital in Rustenburg to help improve service delivery.
Currently, the hospital is attending to 8 000 patients per month and more than 50% of them are trauma cases. The unit is fully equipped with modern health care technology worth R30 million. It includes electronic and hydraulic resuscitation, gynaecology breast complex patient monitors, a digital x-ray machine and electronic access control doors to allow smooth flow.
The unit revitalisation is part of ongoing projects in Bojanala Platinum District health facilities, in preparation for the 2010 Fifa World Cup, and is intended to improve emergency and clinical service delivery, particularly in the trauma unit.
The ANC is committed to working with our people in improving the quality of life and accelerating the said delivery of services to millions and achieving a better life for all of us and the people we represent. I thank you. [Applause.]
