Weskoppies Hospital had the honour of welcoming the DENOSA Regional Chair, Mr. Baloyi, and the Provincial Chair, Mr. Banda, during their support visit on 12 February 2026. The leadership conducted a walkabout across key service areas, engaging with staff, listening to challenges, and acknowledging the continued dedication of our nursing professionals. Their presence reinforced the importance of collaboration, morale‑building, and strengthening the quality of care provided to our MHCU (Mental Health Care Users).
