GSH: WOMAN DEMANDS INVESTIGATION INTO BABY’S DEATH

Mother waits for answersNADINE MOODIE

A first-time mother is demanding an-swers and is questioning the actions ofGroote Schuur Hospital staff after giv-

ing birth to a stillborn baby girl.A week before the expected date of deliv-

ery, Nikita Kleinsmith (21) experienced mildcontractions on Thursday 27 June.

A heart condition makes her a high-riskpatient and she attended Groote Schuur Hos-pital’s Maternity Obstetrics Unit.

After noticing a substance on her under-wear, she phoned the hospital and was ad-vised to go in immediately, she recalls.

“I was examined by the doctor on night du-ty and was sent home at 09:00 the next dayeven though I was still in pain,” she says.

Later that day she experienced severe con-tractions. “The following morning I startedbleeding and experienced contractionswhich were five minutes apart.”

She was taken to hospital by ambulance.“When we arrived at hospital I was admit-

ted to the maternity ward where I washooked up to machines which monitored thebaby’s heart rate. A student nurse came intothe room and I told her I needed the toilet.

“Even though she checked the results onthe machine which confirmed the baby’sheart rate was dropping, she still removedthe heart monitor band from my stomachand allowed me to go,” she says.

“I am a high-risk patient because I havea heart condition, so shouldn’t more carehave gone into ensuring my baby’s safety?Don’t hospitals have bed pans for patientswith my condition?”

She says when she returned from the toileta doctor asked her if she took herself off theheart machine.

“I informed the doctor that a studentnurse took me off the machine and allowedme to go to the toilet.”

Kleinsmith claims the doctor left the roomand called another nurse who attached a uri-nal bag to her and took her for a scan.

“The doctors then decided to do an emer-gency Caesarean section when they realisedthe baby’s heart rate was dropping. I wasprepped for surgery and before I went intotheatre they called my heart doctor to do theoperation, but he was not available at thetime.”

She says they did another scan and toldher the baby had died.

“He added that if they performed the oper-

ation they would’ve put my life in danger.Shouldn’t I have been given that choice tomake?”

Kleinsmith says she experienced contrac-tions and “had to give birth [to baby Zoe] asif she was still alive”. “My mother spoke tothe doctor who told her the umbilical chordcame loose from the afterbirth and that thebaby died of a lack of oxygen. But when Zoewas born she was still attached to the umbili-cal chord and the afterbirth.”

Kleinsmith says the hospital wanted to doan autopsy, but she refused and said theycould “use the afterbirth instead, becausethat is where they believed the problemstemmed from”.

“I was told if Zoe had survived shewould’ve been brain dead.”

Six weeks later Kleinsmith still has no an-swers. “It’s been more than a month sinceher passing and I’ve still not been informed

about the cause of death.”She says she wants feedback as she is una-

ble to come to terms with the death of herbaby.

Mark van der Heever, the provincialhealth department’s deputy director of com-munications, says the department is una-ware of the patient’s experience.

“This is the first time the department ishearing about this case,” he says.

No formal complaint has been made toGroote Schuur Hospital, Van der Heevercontinues. “Once the department receivesthe complaint it is usually acknowledged infive days and the patient is provided with aresponse within 30 working days, after thecomplaint has been thoroughly investigat-ed.”

He says the patient will also be providedwith an interim response outlining theprogress of the complaint and date of when

a detailed response can be expected.“All complaints received are regarded as

serious and recorded in the complaints reg-ister which contains the complainant’s de-tail and origin and nature of complaint.”

He adds: “Groote Schuur Hospital is atraining hospital where certain tasks maybe allocated to students, who should beworking under the supervision or instruc-tion of more senior qualified staff. Some-times students are already qualified, but areworking towards becoming a specialist in arespective field.”

Van der Heever advises that patients fol-low the correct complaints procedure as itis “the only way in which we can provide asolution or improve our service in the caseof unsatisfactory incidents”.V To lodge a complaint against provincial governmenthealth facilities, SMS the word “HELP” to 31022, call0860 142 142 or email service@westerncape.gov.za.

EMERGENCY NUMBER: CALLERS FEEL THEY ARE LEFT HANGING

‘No answer at 10111’NADINE MOODIE

When faced with an emergency, thefirst thing you need is help. Butwhen that help is a phonecall away

and no one is answering, you could feel likeyou’re left hanging.

A businessman says he’s called the 10111emergency number on numerous occasionsand had terrible experiences.

“I witnessed a robbery where people werestabbing each other,” says the man, whodoes not want to be named. “It was a heated

situation and people were getting hurt. Icalled the emergency number and there wasno answer. I was frustrated and afraid, so Icalled again and reported thematter, but thepolice never pitched.”

He says he no longer calls the police andinstead drives to a police station to reportcrime.

Language also became an issue.A previous time when he tried reporting

an incident to 10111, “the call centre opera-tor asked me to refrain from speaking Afri-kaans because he couldn’t understand me”.

He believes some 10111 operators don’thave a good command of languages spokenby the people whom they’re serving.

An elderly woman, who does not want tobe named, says she calls 10111 at least threetimes a week to report crimes , but very sel-dom gets a response from the police.

“It’s very frustrating when police encour-age residents to report crimes and promiseto come to your assistance, but never pitchwhen you call,” she says.

“I tried to report a case where a young girlwas being raped by her grandfather, but nooneanswered thephoneat thepolice station.I called (suspended chairperson of the pro-vincial Community Police Forum) HanifLoonat, who went to the police station to re-port the crime.

“The rapist is nowbehind bars becausewemanaged to go to the police to report thecrime. What happens in cases where peoplecan’t go to the police?”

The feisty woman says she sometimestakes the law into her own hands and per-sonally removes drug peddlers from herstreet.

Other residents walk to the police stationto report crimes because their calls are notanswered.

“The service is appalling. During Ram-adaan I called to report an incident and thecall centre agent put the phone down in myear because she could not understand Eng-lish. Another time my call was transferredto an answeringmachine saying they’re ‘notavailable at the moment’,” she recalls.

“I’m a pensioner and spend money buyingairtime to call and they don’t pitch.”

Heideveld Community NeighbourhoodWatch chairperson Mugidien Barnes saysthe service is at its worst over weekends.

“I’ve tried reporting shootings and domes-tic violence cases over weekends and no oneanswers the phone,” he says.

Loonat, who is suspended for criticisingthe Athlone Police Station, says he’s re-ceived countless complaints from peoplesaying they can’t get through at weekends.

He says government should upgrade thesystem so callers can select a language pref-erence.

Loonat says he’s relayed complaints todeputy provincial police commissionerGen-eral Sharon Japhta about the “inefficientand ineffective emergency number”.

He says some people who called thenumber were reporting shootings and do-

mestic violence.“I’ve received 30 complaints in the last

threemonths. I also tried calling thenumberand no one answered.”

It’s better for people to call 10111 becausethe system automatically logs the call andrecords the conversation, so then no one candeny facts of the conversation, he says.

Technological aspects need to improveand well-trained operators need to be em-ployed, Loonat adds.

“We should not be playing with people’slives. Money should be spent on this service,even though it’s costly, because our people’slives cannot be in danger.”

Provincial police spokesperson FC vanWyk says 10111 is a medium to receive com-plaints, which are “registered and dis-patched to the local police station or com-plaint vehicle responsible to attend to thecomplaint. It is the station commander’s re-sponsibility to attend to the complaint with-in their policing area”.

He says there are delays at busy times, likeweekends and month-end.

“All calls should be answered within twoseconds. About 63% of all calls are nuisanceand information calls.”

KENILWORTH: STILL IN THE DARK

Lights don’t go on for residentNADINE MOODIE

Failure to switchon street lights inKenil-worth have given rise to fears for a resi-dent’s personal safety.

But Lancaster Road resident Andrea vanRensburg says her pleas for the street lightsto be switched on have fallen on deaf ears.She says she has made numerous com-

plaints to theCity of CapeTown’s ElectricityDepartment, but to no avail.Van Rensburg says she has started high-

lighting the problem two months ago.“I came home from work to a dark street

and reported the matter to the City’s Elec-tricity Department, but each time I called inthe evening, my call got cut off,” she says.She then sent an SMS, but “only heard

from them the next morning”.

Van Rensburg says the street lights wereswitched on three days later.“Last week the street lights were out

again. I called the department on Fridayevening and my call was cut again. I sent anSMS and then called on Saturdaymorning,”she says.“On Monday morning I received an SMS

from the City saying the complaint was sentto the relevant department. The lights arestill out and there’s been no change.”Expressing concern for fellow-residents,

Van Rensburg says perpetrators could hidebehind bushes under the cover of darkness.“I leave early in the morning when it is

dark and arrive home late at night,” shesays.“”Having no street lights is a serious safe-

ty hazard because there are many people

roaming around the streets at all hours ofthe day.”Kenilworth Village Civic Association sec-

retary Sheila Jacobs says: “Sometimes theCity responds to complaints very quickly,but inmost cases they take a long time. Thisis not only the case for Kenilworth, but inneighbouring communities, too.”Ward councillor Matthew Kempthorne

says this is a serious problem becauseswitched-on street lights is oneway to allevi-ate crime.“The City has replaced many street lights

because the equipment is either too old orkeeps tripping,” he says.“The city’s population is approaching four

million people, which adds pressure to itselectricity supply, keeping in mind thingsdon’t last forever.

“The City spends more on repairs andmaintenance, because of the huge backlog ininfrastructure, as some communities haveservices while others have none.”Kempthornehighlights thatwhen theCity

recently replaced street lights in Claremontresidents complained they were too bright.“I received an influx of complaints from

people saying they had sleepless nights andwere in the process of purchasing heavy-du-ty curtains because of the bright LED light-ing. The following day a team from the Elec-tricity Department was sent back to dim thelights,” he says.

CERTIFIED: The City of Cape Town awarded20 Law Enforcement officers skipper compe­tency certificates. The officers, who success­fully completed the Category C Vessel Skip­pers Course, will be assisting the City’s Marineand Environmental Law Enforcement Unitwith the enforcement of the City’s bylaws andcrime prevention initiatives.

Warning signsup at ElsieskraalNADINE MOODIE

A year after a seven-year-old boydrowned in the Elsieskraal River, se-curity measures at the site have been

beefed up.In keeping with a commitment made to

Pinelands and Thornton residents, the Cityof Cape Town erected danger signs along theriver bank.Dale Eastland drowned while playing

along the bank (“Safety plan for Elsiesk-raal”, People’s Post, 28 May).At the timeDale’s father, George, toldPeo-

ple’s Post the family hadmoved from Thorn-ton to come to terms with what had hap-pened.“In winter the canal runs constantly be-

cause of the heavy rainfall in the Cape,” hesaid. “Thornton is a growing communityand I never ever want to hear of anotherchild drowning in that river.”John Berry, Pinelands Ratepayers’ Asso-

ciation chairperson, says the signs along theriver is a step in the right direction.“We just need people to obey the signs be-

cause it is for their own safety. Our commu-nities can’t afford to lose more lives becauseof the river,” he says.Thornton Residents’ Association treasur-

er PetraD’Aguanno says the communityhaswaited for nearly a year to see the signserected along the canal.“Residents need to be careful and obey the

signs because we can’t afford to lose anotherperson,” she says. “We are in favour of im-plementing any other safety measures to se-cure the canal in Thornton.”Ward councillor Brian Watkyns says City

of Cape Town officials have gone out of theirway to ensure thewarning signs are erected.“It’s not enough to have the signs. People

need to take them seriously and apply cau-tion,” he says.“Parents and teachers need to warn chil-

dren of the danger when the river becomesfast flowing.“We’ve also had a number of cases where

dogs have fallen into the river and ownershave jumped in to save their pets, only to beswept downstream into life-threatening sit-uations.”

Giving endangered species a chanceTERESA FISCHER

No animal is too small for protection byTable Mountain National Park (TMNP).At a visit to Cape Point Reserve, rang-

ers take this reporter to an innocuoussmall pool of black water in the Cape fyn-bos heathlandwhich serves as a breedingsite of the endangered Cape Platanna orCape Clawed Toad.They share their pool with the Com-

monPlatanna,which in contrast is anun-wanted visitor as they started to inter-breed with the Cape Platanna, resultingin hybrid populations. This had a furthernegative impact on Cape Platanna popu-lations because thehybridmales are ster-ile. On this visit Common Platanna areremoved from the pond to improve thechances of survival for the endangeredCape Platanna.They are one of five species of threat-

ened frogs which breed within the bor-ders of TMNP, including the critically en-dangered Table Mountain Ghost Frog.These frogs breed in mountain streamsin the reserve near Newlands/ Kirsten-bosch and this is the only place in theworldwhere they can be found. They feedon moss, taking a year to change fromtadpoles to frogs.Another near threatened species is the

Cape Peninsula Moss Frog, which, rang-ers say, are extremely difficult to find.Marisa de Kock, section ranger, says

coming across one of these is “like find-ing a needle in a haystack. One can hearthem, but I have never seen one”.She adds not much research has been

conducted on these frogs.The Roses Mountain Toad, in turn,

makes no sound and is also critically en-

dangered. Two breeding sites are known– one at Cape Point and one in the Silver-mineReserve, in thevicinity of a path fre-quented by dog walkers.The reserve is crucial to the survival

of these species, which may be over-looked by visitors who are unaware oftheir presence.Meanwhile, the TMNP’s Cape of Good

Hope Section introduced camera trapsabout 18 months ago, which help rangersgather data on species, some of whichhave not been seen in a long time.One suchanimal is thenocturnalwater

mongoose, which they say would other-wise be impossible to spot.Porcupines, grey rhebuck, bontebok

and playful Cape clawless otters are justa few of the many species snapped by thecameras, which are triggered by move-ment. Others, like the honey badger, stillneed to be captured on camera.A faunal inventory was conducted as

part of the park’s management plan,which includes the rehabilitation and re-introduction of animals such as the klip-springer – a tiny antelope hunted to localextinction in the 1930s. Nineteen of theseanimals were released into the park in1999 and is now said to be widespread,having been seen at Elsie’s Peak, MistyCliffs and Rooikrans.All this information leads to better

management of the reserve, say rangers,who emphasise the importance of know-ingwhich activitiesmay impact the habi-tats of these creatures. One example isdamming up of streamswhich have a cat-astrophic effect onTableMountainGhostFrog population.Visitors can assist the park by driving

at the speed limit.

After many attempts to beef up secu-rity at StegmanPark inClaremont,the answer seems closer than be-

fore.Earlier this year the toilet which wasonce located in the park was demol-ished.This came about after residents com-plained about vagrants using and livingin the ablution facility.Ward councillor Ian Iversen says he

wants to see the community using thepark again.“The park is 2 000m² and it’s a beauti-ful space which residents should be us-ing and not avoiding,” he says.“We’ll be placing a security guard atthe park to keep vagrants at bay and toonly have the park open during the dayand locking the gate at night.“In the past, we experienced great dif-ficulty with maintaining security in thepark and seeing residents still using thespace.”Faheem Jackson, a congregant at AlJamia Masjid, which is down the roadfrom the park, says the park is alwayslocked and he never sees people enjoy-ing the space.“Something constructive needs tohappen to get residents to use the parkagain,” he says.“People complain about the vagrants,but we haven’t had any problems withthem.“On a Friday during Jumuah, the

Muslim Friday prayer, the vagrants actas carguards at the mosque and showcongregants to parking spaces.”The City of Cape Town’s MayoralCommittee member for CommunityServices and Special Projects, BelindaWalker, says the fence around the parkhas been damaged on numerous occa-sions.“Last year, the fence was broken fourto five times. The situation should im-prove, because the toilet which drew va-grants to the park was demolished,” shesays.“We suspect vagrants and homelesspeople are responsible for breaking thefence around the park.“There are many indications that va-grants are frequenting the area, espe-cially along the railway line.“Residents need to report broken pe-rimeter fences to City Parks, while dam-aged substation fences should be report-ed to the City’s electricity department.“City Parks have no record of thefence injuring anybody.”The City’s Mayoral Committee mem-ber for Utility Services Ernest Sonnen-berg says unauthorised access to thesubstation in the park is restricted tomembers of the public because of thehigh risk of electrocution that exists in-side.“The danger arises from exposure tolive parts and also from violent explo-sions as a result of a malfunction of sub-station equipment which is not uncom-mon in the event of a fault,” he says.

The South African Schools rug-by side hope to “improve andbuild” on their 19-14 victory

over England at City Park on Fri-day.The match formed part of the In-

ternational Under-18 Series whichalso features Italy, France andWales.Team coach Chris October be-

lieves his side will only get betterafter a shaky performance in thesetpieces.“The scrums are always a dicey

affair, especially with the newlaws. This is the first time the boysplayedand scrummed together.Wecan just build on this and im-prove,” he says.“In the first half we did well in

the line-outs, but (it seems) theypicked up our calls. A lot of workstill lies ahead. The foundation hasbeen laid for success in the rest ofthe series and we are looking for-ward to the next challenge. Interms of our defence, attack andkicking there are a few things wecan improve on.”England broke the deadlock ear-

ly in the match when skipper andeighth-man James Chisholmpicked up from the back of a scrumin the SA 22 and charged over.Sam Olver goaled the resulting

conversion, but SA right wingGrantHermanusnarrowed thedef-icit with a penalty soon after.SA captain and number eight

Rikus Bothma refused to be out-

done by his England counterpartand powered his way across thewhitewash to take the lead.Howev-er, Hermanus missed the conver-sion and SA lead 8-7 at half-time.Duhan van der Merwe extended

South Africa’s lead in the secondhalf, popping up in the centres togather a pass one-handed, scythethrough gap and dot down.Hermanus missed the conver-

sion again and it seemed it wouldprove costly after Chisholm andOlver retook the lead for Englandwith another try and conversionrespectively.Flyhalf Brandon Thomas took

over kicking duties, after Her-manus departed injured, and wenton to nail two penalties to hand SAthe victory.October praisedhis side for their

defensive performance, after soak-ing up the advice of defence guruJacques Nienaber in training ses-sions last week.“Right from the beginning we

knew there would be three aspectsthat was going to be very impor-tant ifwewere towin the game; ourdefence, attack and kicking,” Octo-ber says.“Defencemust be the foundation

on which we lay any success. To-day the guys went out there andshowed a lot of character.”SA take on France at Outeniqua

Park in George at 18:00 today(Tuesday 13 August) and then faceWales at Boland Stadium in Wel-lington on Saturday 17 August at15:30.

BMT key to success at hockey tournamentLIAM MOSES

South Africa under-21 men’s hockey coachDarryn Gallagher hopes his players canshow big match temperament when theyplay in the senior men’s inter-provincialtournament (IPT) later this month.

The SA under-21’s will participate in thetournament, hosted atHartleyvale, in prepa-ration for the International Hockey Federa-tion (IHF) Men’s Junior World Cup in Indiain December.

The final squad for the tournament willannounced after the IPT and Gallagherknows exactly what quality and skills hewants from players.

“We look for guys who are going to take(the lead in) the critical and crucial mo-ments. We are looking for guys who are go-ing to play with belief, regardless of thescoreline,” he says.

“Recently I have been involved in a few in-ternational tournaments and the SA sideshave been so close to getting big results, buthave just not been able to take the crucialmoments like other teams.

“We’re obviously (also) looking for fitnessand conditioning, an understanding ofstructures and intelligent players.”

TheSAunder-21 squadcurrentlynumbersat 31 players, but just 18 will compete at theIPT and the squad will be cut to between 22and 24 for the World Cup – depending on howmany players meet the coaching team’sstandards at the IPT.

Gallagher says he is currently leaning to-

wards 22, as a smaller group allows the play-ers to be better focused. The IPT will be thelast chance for all players to stake theirclaim for a national place, whether they’re“fringe” squad members or those not part ofthe set-up at all.

“If anyone is going to play their way intothe team, then it’s going to be someone fromthat squad,” says Gallagher.

“For someone to come into the squad andnot have had any involvement in the build-up would be quite tough, but not out of thequestion.”

He adds that while winning the tourna-ment would be a “bonus”, the only goal isgiving players equal time to prove theirworth.

SAhavebeengroupedwithEngland, Paki-stan and Malaysia at the Junior World Cupand will need to finish in the top two of thegroup to qualify for the quarter-finals. WithEngland at fourth on the FIH world rank-ings, Pakistan at eighth and Malaysia justbelow South Africa at 12th, competition willbe tough.

Gallagher believes his side are capable ofmaking the top eight if they show the tem-perament and take those “crucial mo-ments”.

The IPT will take place at Hartleyvalefrom Sunday 25 to Saturday 31 August.V The South African under-21 players will have to carrythe cost of the trip to the Junior World Cup trip toIndia themselves. Anyone interested in sponsoring theteam can contact Gallagher at dgallagh-er@nwood.co.za.

Engen Knockoutto rock Wynberg

LIAM MOSES

The battle for under-17 football domi-nance will resume this weekend whenthe 10th annual Engen Knockout Chal-

lenge finals kick off.Regarded as a proving ground for Cape

Town’s most talented young footballers, theChallenge is hotly contested by 16 of theMother City’s best teams each year.

The 10th edition will be no different, fea-turing the under-17 sides from four differentprofessional teams, two of South Africa’sbest academies and some of the Cape’s mostwell-known amateur clubs. People’s Post isthe tournament’s print media sponsor.

In Group A, Pinelands-based Old MutualAcademy, Mitchell’s Plain’s Kenpark Unit-ed, Green Point Salesians and Island Roverswill compete for the top twoplaces anda spotin the next round.

With excellent facilities, coaching tomatch and a track record littered with thespoils of junior tournaments, Old Mutualare clear-cut favourites to qualify top of thegroup and face the second-placed finisherfrom Group B.

The rest will have to fight it out for secondplace and face the tougher route to the finalwith the winners of Group B waiting in thenext round.BothKenparkand IslandRoversare capable of sneaking through.

In Group B defending champions and fivetime victors Ajax Cape Town are expectedto brush aside any challenge in the groupand finish with three wins and a healthygoal difference.

Fellow professional outfit Vasco da Gamashould fill the second spot after a breezingthrough the last qualification round with a100% record and an average of three goalsper game. Cape United and Kuils River FCwill most likely continue onto the Plate sec-

tion of the tournament.Group C is the toughest of the tournament

this year.While tournament hosts and former

champions Santos will be favourites to fin-ish first, the race for second place is lessclear cut.

Grassy Park’s Crusaders are the form sideout of the three, after banging in 10 goals inthree wins during qualifying. But despiteless impressive track records, Coca-ColaCup senior champions Hanover Park andKraaifontein City could be the group’s darkhorses.

ASD Cape Town Academy, Challengechampions in 2010, will most likely take thetop spot in Group D with National First Divi-sion team Chippa United finishing second.

The Claremont-based club scored sevengoals and conceded none in three victoriesin the qualifiers and have a history of un-earthing and polishing the rough diamondsof Cape football since inception. Atlantic Na-cional and Bishop Lavis will scrap to avoidfinishing at the bottom of the pile.

The tournament will kick off at 17:30 onFriday, with Old Mutual facing off againstKenpark United on the B field, and run untilthe last gameat 20:15. TheChallengewill runfrom 09:30 to 15:30 on Saturday, and from09:30 until 15:30 (tournament final) on Sun-day.

All games will be played at the WilliamHerbert Sports complex in Wynberg. HeartFM’s Nick Feinberg and former Santoscoach Duncan Crowie will be in attendanceon the final day.V Visit www.peoplespost.co.za for news on the EngenKnockout Challenge as it happens.V Follow @ThePeople’sPost and @LiamCPT on Twit-ter for updates and results.
