The Department further noted that the old Nkhensani Hospital has been deemed uninhabitable and the condition of the building has deteriorated to such an extent that the building had to be demolished. Short alternative accommodation has been made available at the Evuxakeni Hospital, though the conditions there were not ideal either; it met the requirements in respect of space and security, in the short term. Plans are currently underway to extend the psychiatric wards at Evuxakeni and make them more suitable. The Department is struggling with the pace at which the Evuxakeni Hospital is being revitalized.
