NO WATER AT MBA. GOVT HOSPITAL FOR TWO DAYS

MBABANE – Patients at Mbabane Government Hospital did not bath on Friday and Saturday as there was no water.

Those patients who woke up early on Friday were the only ones who found the water running.
Some of the patients in Wards 12 and 8 were found on Saturday at around 11am, complaining that they could not use the hospital bathrooms because of the shortage of water.

According to them, they were not told what was happening and those who can walk had to use the bathrooms in the other wards.
Relatives who are watching over those admitted to the wards, had to get buckets to collect water for bathing for themselves and their sick relatives.

Other patients were found asking the nurses who were attending to them to find out what was happening and the nurses told them they also did not know.

Some were speculating that the water had been disturbed by the construction company which was busy in the hospital premises.
One patient in the newly revamped Ward 12, stated that what was happening to them was not fair because bathing made them feel better.
Another stated that he was being discharged on the Saturday and had to go home using public transport dirty because there was no water to bath. Ward 8 is that of young children and they also could not use their toilets or take baths. The patients admitted that it would have been better if there was no electricity than water because they would be clean.
