Western Cape recruitment drive in full swing to combat the spread of COVID-19

The Western Cape Government Health is calling on skilled health professionals residing in the province and beyond the borders of the province, to volunteer and assist in the fight to stop the spread of COVID-19, in the Western Cape.

This COVID-19 pandemic along with the pre-existing burden of disease are placing our facilities under tremendous pressure. In line with the country-wide recruitment drive, we require all hands on deck to ensure that there is enough capacity in the province to deal with the anticipated rise in the number of people testing positive for COVID-19, in need of medical care.

Volunteer doctors, nurses and emergency medical service personnel who are NOT employees of the Department can help mitigate the additional pressures COVID-19 will be placing on our services, over the coming weeks and months.

We call on all available health professionals to take up this opportunity to make a meaningful contribution and to assist in our response to this pandemic.

Those interested in adding their support can register on COVID 19 Volunteer Recruitment
