Two paramedics who allegedly abandoned a patient in Umlazi, Durban, have been placed under immediate precautionary suspension, for investigation.
The KwaZulu-Natal Department of Health has said they will not hesitate to take the most stringent action possible against any emergency healthcare staff who deliberately fail to discharge their duties and prioritise the life and well-being of those in need.
She said she then called on her neighbours to assist her in carrying her sister up the stairs because she was heavy, when the paramedics said they were being ‘too slow’ and ‘wasting their time’ , and left the scene without providing any medical attention to the woman’s sister.
