Linen supplies at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital located in Johannesburg are affected by equipment issues.
The Gauteng Department of Health has intervened in a shortage of linen at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital.
The Central Hospital Board and Aid Association assigned two teams of workers to work day and night shifts at Dunswart Laundries, ensuring a steady supply of clean linen for patients.“It is important to note that the laundry machines at the hospital are ageing and have reached the end of their operational lifespan.
According to the department, providing patients with clean linens is important and if their system experiences mechanical problems, other steps will be taken to keep the service running.
