For too long, expectant mothers and individuals needing medical attention have had to travel from their homes in Nomzamo and Lwandle to the Hottentots Hospital (HH) in Somerset West or to Macassar. Plans are finally underway to build a new, long-overdue district hospital that will serve both communities.

, the new hospital is a collaborative effort by the Western Cape Department of Health and is expected to cater to the needs of the residents, including accommodation facilities. The department has already approved a comprehensive business plan for the construction of a 370-bed district hospital.Bishop Lavis clinic manager praised for her devotion to patient-centred care

Nevertheless, a location for the new hospital has been earmarked by the Western Cape Government Department of Infrastructure. This designated site, situated along the N2, has already been enclosed by fencing, and a security container has been provided for the guards. As progress gears up, it is projected that groundwork will commence in the coming year. The entire construction project will be executed in well-planned phases, culminating in the completion of the new hospital.
