New petition description:
capeargus.co.za/news/2026-03-23-reverend-bougardt-takes-patient-care-issues-at-mitchells-plain-hospital-to-human-rights-commission/
This petition is a united call for justice, accountability, and the protection of patients’ rights within our public healthcare system. It arises from the concerning treatment of Mrs. Sonday and Mr. Bougardt at Mitchell’s Plain District Hospital, where repeated attempts to obtain clear answers and proper resolution have been met with inadequate responses, delays, and a lack of accountability.
The purpose of this petition is not only to address this specific case, but to stand up for every individual who depends on public healthcare services and deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and fairness. As South Africans, we are guaranteed the right to access healthcare services under Section 27 of the Constitution, and this right must be upheld without exception.
