So next on the agenda is the problems in the x-ray department.
Nick, would you like to fill us in here?
Well, as you all know, this is a very busy department.
So we have four x-ray machines in all, including one in the fracture and orthopedic clinic area.
But recently, one of the other x-ray machines developed a fault.
And so we had to apply for authorization for the purchase of a new tube for it.
There's been some kind of hold up with the paperwork and...
while we've been waiting, patients are being brought into the fracture and orthopedic area for x-rays there instead.
And of course that's causing further congestion.
