Gauteng Department of Health, Folateng, Pretoria West - A place to stay away from if you know what's good for your health.

<p>My daughter went to Folateng also know as Pretoria West hospital for her baby. My granddaughter was born on Sa****ay the 4th of June 2016. There is no warm water in that place, for appartently these last four weeks, the electricity is almost non existing, and I always thought that hospitals have to have generators, she has to be happy to sleep under two sheets as the request for a blanket is ignored. It was discoverd with her first child that for some reason or the other she doesn't produce milk and yet they refused to bottle feed the baby. That poor kid had to go without food now for almost two days, forcing her to try to get something out of her mother. My daugter told them tonight that she is refusing to go on with this as her breasts are busrts and the poor kind has to drink blood. Another lady came in and told the nursing staff straight she refuses to breast feed and they told her no problem she can bottle feed. Double standards. Their meals are of such that the lady serving it to them told them she don't blame them if they don't want to eat the soup as not even she will, why???. To address these things with the persons in charge seems like a waist of time. My question is, why do they have double standards and why do the public have to sit with this type of service. Where is our health services going to? I don't want to get political, but how does gauteng, particular Pretoria's Mayor spend their budgets. on what? Definately not to the public.</p>
