  • At my Age is a show that aims to provide intervention for elderly people faced with a plight they can’t resolve because of their age.
    In this episode we look into the case of Mkhulu Nana whom we found stuck at home with a debilitating plight. Following the rapture of a bizarre growth situated near his genitals, Mkhulu was referred to the Far East hospital by his local clinic but to his disappointment, he was discharged shortly without receiving proper care. This led to his community rallying behind him in an attempt to get him proper treatment but all was in vain. Whose responsibility is it to ensure hospitals do their job? What does an elder do when suffering neglect by a facility that is supposed to care them? Where does one go when faced with this kind of situation?
    At my Age plays on SABC 2 every Tuesday at 11h00

    All I hear from the CEO is a bunch of excuses. The issue was not that u Khulu had no one to care for him. His neighbours were doing a very good job, the hospital is the one that did not care for him at all. They should have attained all personal information at admission and communicated with all healthcare providers involved eg clinic and social workers for continued care. This was gross negligence and someone should be answerable for this as this led to a painful death of khulu. May his soul rest in peace.

    Why is the CEO smiling throughout. There's nothing to smile about concerning this matter. The public health system is failing our elders and they don't take responsibility for their actions. Incurable diseases don't mean he shouldn't be made comfortable and taken care of

    The health care practitioners do not, and I repeat they do not even bother to try and explain to the patients what's the diagnosis and I think that is the problem ... Talking from experience

    Oh Far East is the worst hospital. Mkhulu is right. The nurses are super rude. Clinic in twatwa Emaphupheni is like a death trap. They will put drips on you for no reason without even cleaning you up. Disgusting.
    They will shout at the elderly and say bayadina.
