Gauteng Health issues Tembisa Hospital CEO with suspension notice By Sihle Mlambo Share Johannesburg - The Gauteng Department of Health has issued Tembisa Hospital chief executive Dr Lekopane Mogaladi with a notice of suspension after Health Ombudsman Professor Malegapuru Makgoba’s damning report published last week. Mogaladi has five days to furnish the department with reasons why he should not be suspended, said Gauteng Health MEC Dr Nomathemba Mokgethi. Mokgethi said they had issued the suspension notice to Mogaladi in line with Makgoba’s recommendations after he found that there was gross medical negligence at the hands of doctors, nurses and food handlers, leading to the avoidable death of patient Shonisani Lethole.
