Abstract

The current state of maintenance in government hospital facilities in South Africa is reviewed. Certain factors that contributed to the current state of hospital facilities are identified. A system for hospital maintenance management is proposed. Several immediate as well as long-term benefits of the proposed system are indicated. It is suggested that the proposed maintenance system be further enhanced by means of a facilities management approach.
