HEALTHCARE:
TRUST US FOR HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT
The South African health system faces a multitude of challenges that have hindered its ability
to provide adequate healthcare services to citizens. Tragically, the state of our healthcare
system reflects a country in crisis.
Poor funding, management and maintenance of State-run hospitals and clinics have led to the
collapse and dysfunction of many facilities, while many that continue to operate are filthy and
under-resourced, causing the deaths of the very patients who should be helped. Essential
equipment and medical supplies never reach those who need them, due to corruption, tender
fraud and operational mismanagement.
Good health and well-being are integral to the overall socio-economic success of our nation.
All South Africans deserve access to quality, innovative healthcare.
