Umlamli Hospital
Umlamli Hospital is a Provincial government funded community hospital for the Senqu Local Municipality area in Sterkspruit, Eastern Cape in South Africa. It is situated near the Lesotho and Free State borders with 74 usable beds. It forms a cluster with Empilisweni, Lady Grey and Cloete Joubert Hospital
The hospital handles mostly chronic cases like TB and HIV/AIDS. Other departments include Emergency department, Maternity ward, Out Patients Department, Surgical Services, Medical Services, Pharmacy, Anti-Retroviral (ARV) treatment for HIV/AIDS, Physiotherapy, Laundry Services, Kitchen Services and Mortuary.
The hospital's branch of the Ilitha College serves as a training institution for nurses, and a proofing ground for junior doctors, pharmacists and physiotherapists, since it draws a large workforce from the surrounding villages.
History
The hospital was founded in 1933 by the Roman Catholic Mission Society[1] with his first director Hans Pattis (1897–1933) from Bozen[2] and became a Transkei state institution in 1976.[3]
