Deputy Minister Aziz Pahad to Render
Voluntary Services to the Gauteng Emergency Services
and Natalspruit Hospital, Tuesday 30 April 2002
Re: NATIONAL HEALTH FOCUS MONTH
Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Aziz Pahad will
render voluntary services at the East Rand Emergency
Call Centre in Alberton, Swartkoppies Road and the casualty
section of the Natalspruit Hospital on Tuesday 30 April
from 10h00.
The visit takes place in the context of the call by
President Thabo Mbeki to engender a spirit of volunteerism
(Letsema/Ilima) in our communities and the national
focus on health issues during the month of April.
In this context, Deputy Minister Pahad will be joined
by a team of medical doctors from the East Rand under
the leadership of Dr. Margaret Mojapelo. The Deputy
Minister will first assist with receiving calls at the
Gauteng Emergency Services (Call centre) Alberton, ambulance
services and the casualty ward of Natalspruit Hospital.
Dr. Mojapelo and her team of doctors hope to render
these services on a monthly basis to the East Rand community
for the duration of the year as part of their contribution
to Letsema/Ilima volunteer programme.
