The key challenges highlighted by the institution was that of a chronic shortage of doctors, urgent need for government intervention in respect of integration planning, and more incentives for doctors to work in rural areas. There is a lot of infrastructural investment which is not matched with the development of infrastructure for the doctors and other professionals that need to work at the hospitals. Furthermore, the hospital also has a shortage of medicines due to its proximity to a major road. Most residents of rural communities that would have received chronic medication from their local clinics now receive their medication from the hospital. This depletes the hospital's supply of medication.
