We are all tired of the incompetence and blatant disregard of the NDOH and ICSP. No communication, no placements by December and no budget in place for a compulsory job….Tyler Epstein (Cape Town, 2023-11-29)

There is an overwhelming disregard for our autonomy as individuals. We all have personal commitments and established lives outside of our work, yet we are expected to uproot our lives. Even if we can accept that it is for the communities we serve, the ICSP and NDOH does not even have the consideration to give us more than 4 weeks and 4 days (the current days left before the expected starting date at the time of writing this) to make this sacrifice.Jandri Rossouw (Cape Town, 2023-11-29)

I am a medical doctor patiently awaiting placement allocation for the one year of mandatory community service. Being a healthcare professional, our most important focus is to help people, however at the same time we are human beings with lives outside of medicine with responsibilities and financial obligations.Assistance will be greatly appreciated.

I am currently completing my community service year and I know full and well the stress that accompanies this year and the arrangements that need to be made to move across the country at the drop of a hat when placements are released. It is not only unprofessional but unconstitutional to hold hostage information pertaining to the future of our healthcare workers.Abigail van der Westhuyzen (Cape Town, 2023-11-29)

I’m signing because it is totally unacceptable to expect people to give notice where they are currently living, find new accommodation and make the move in 2 days.Nobody CHOSE to do community service. They are forced by law.
