“It is worth noting that the Orsmond Tuberculosis Hospital possesses valuable medical equipment, including an X-ray machine, which could be better utilised in other facilities to enhance healthcare services,” she said. “The outgoing Health Ombudsman has expressed disappointment with the actions of the Eastern Cape Department of Health.
