Media statement
Monday, 24 August 2015
On behalf of nurses in South Africa, the Democratic Nursing Organisation of South Africa (DENOSA) wishes the Minister of Health, Dr Aaron Motsoaledi, a speedy recovery following his admission at Steve Biko Academic Hospital in Pretoria yesterday.
DENOSA further commends the minister for his consistent use of the public facility for his own health. This sends a message of his strong commitment to the improvement of health service for all South Africans.
We are still of the view that the Minister Motsoaledi is one of the tireless and hardworking ministers in the cabinet who gives his all in ensuring improvement of health in the country.
Our last encounter with him as DENOSA was on 14 July at the African Health Profession Regulatory Collaborative for Nurses and Midwives (ARC) meeting in Kempton Park where he addressed the meeting of nurse leaders from most African countries.
In the meeting, he applauded local nurses and midwives for the role they continue to play in the country’s quality health system, albeit under trying conditions, where nurses are always expected to do the impossible and become everything in many health facilities.
We further send best wishes to the whole Cabinet, the Health Ministry as well as his family.
