With the temporary closure of the Har Trainy Clinic, patients are urged to seek medical services at nearby clinics such as H Block B and Maja Clinic. The health department is aware of transportation issues affecting patients but emphasized that emergency transportation is still available through ambulances. They are committed to ensuring that all patients still receive the medical attention they need while the clinic remains closed. The department is taking steps to communicate effectively with the public on these arrangements.

The Limoo Health Department has announced that it will not proceed with the reopening of the Har Trainy Clinic, which was scheduled to take place on the 14th of this month. This decision comes after thorough consultations with nursing staff, public members, and labor unions. According to the spokesperson, Mr. Neil Shuk, the department prioritized the safety and wellbeing of its personnel, reflecting on the pressures faced by staff delivering services in such a sensitive environment. Safety concerns raised by the nursing staff and the need for a healing process for those affected have led the department to reverse its earlier decision, emphasizing the importance of human resource considerations in healthcare delivery. The department has been in close contact with the South African Police Services regarding an ongoing investigation that impacts staff morale and safety at the clinic. While specific details about the investigation cannot be disclosed, the health department expressed confidence in the police's efforts and anticipates positive outcomes. Mr. Shuk reiterated that securing the safety of the clinic’s employees is paramount and that any developments from the investigation would bolster employee confidence in the healthcare system. As for patient care, the spokesperson addressed the continuity of services during the clinic's closure. Patients requiring medical attention are directed to alternative nearby healthcare facilities, including H Block B, Suit Fontaine, and Maja Clinic. While the health department acknowledges concerns regarding transportation for patients, it clarified that ambulances remain available for emergency cases. The closure of the Har Trainy Clinic, while regrettable, is a necessary step in ensuring the wellbeing of both staff and the community they serve. The health department is committed to keeping the public informed as the situation evolves.
