When they did not rise to assist him, he is seen splashing them with urine.

The Gauteng Department of Health said the incident happened at the Calcot Dlephu clinic in Tsakane in Ekurhuleni on Friday, January 20, 2023.

Gauteng MEC for health and wellness, Nomantu Nkomo-Ralehoko said the conduct was inhumane and vulgar.

“Irrespective of the complaint the member of the public might be having against the health workers, this cannot justify the attack on them. It is uncalled for and we condemn this vulgar act in the strongest possible terms,” said Nkomo-Ralehoko.

She has directed the department to investigate and establish the facts around the incident, to determine a course of action.

“I appeal to communities to work with us. We have made a commitment to ensure we improve patient experience at healthcare facilities.”
