City attends to almost 5 000 service requests from severe power infrastructure damage, outages across the cityCity attends to almost 5 000 service requests from severe power infrastructure damage, outages across the city<img alt="" src="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/cityassets/PublishingImages/City%20news.jpg" style="BORDER:0px solid;" />​The City’s Electricity teams remain on the ground, attending to approximately 4 800 outstanding service requests received since yesterday morning.<p>Escalation of service requests are only being attended to as it pertains to public safety and we urge our community leaders and the public not to add additional strain to the workload for the teams on the ground while they continue to restore areas and attend to life-threatening matters.</p><p>‘All City electricity teams and contractors have been working around the clock responding to widespread electricity outages and repairing weather-related damage to infrastructure across the metro. As an added proactive measure, we have pulled all our resources to restoring power to affected communities, including the suspension of all planned maintenance work so our full focus remains on storm-related infrastructure damage and power restoration.</p><p>A number of areas have already been restored, with critical electricity infrastructure repaired while work continues in all areas. Teams are currently unable to carry out overhead aerial platform work due to high wind speeds and priority is being given to fallen and live wires. Delays may also occur due to safety concerns and high call volumes.</p><p>‘The severe weather over the past few hours and overnight has caused widespread damage and our teams continue to respond to service requests as quickly as possible. Residents are strongly advised to avoid proximity to exposed electrical infrastructure, such as downed wires.

City honours nursing fraternity on International Nurses DayCity honours nursing fraternity on International Nurses Day<img alt="" src="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/cityassets/PublishingImages/clinics-and-healthcare-facilities-listing.jpg" style="BORDER:0px solid;" />Nurses are the backbone of our primary healthcare system<p>This year’s theme, “Our Nurses. Our Future. Empowered Nurses Save Lives,” highlights the importance of strengthening and supporting nurses through safe, fair working conditions, and by elevating their voice and leadership in the healthcare environment.<br> <br>‘Nurses are the backbone of our primary healthcare system. Empowering our nurses means strengthening the entire healthcare system, communities and ultimately saving lives,’ said Mayoral Committee Member for Community Services and Health, Councillor Francine Higham.</p> <figure class="subtopic-fullsize-img"> <img class="responsive" src="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/cityassets/Media%20Images%202/International%20Nurses%20Day%205%20.jpeg" alt="" /> </figure> <span> <p>The City’s nursing complement is aged between 23 and 64 and includes 50 male nurses. They represent a diverse and highly skilled workforce. Their qualifications range from Enrolled Nursing Assistants to Clinical Nurse Practitioners and Professional Nurses, many of whom are equipped to diagnose, treat, and manage illnesses at primary healthcare level. Day to day, City nurses are at the frontline of the services that matter most to our communities. This includes immunisations, maternal and child health, family planning, TB and HIV care, mental health support, and the management of chronic conditions such as hypertension and diabetes.<br> <br>As part of this year’s commemoration, City Health nurses are renewing their pledge to serve humanity with compassion, dignity, and integrity. This symbolic act reaffirms their commitment to placing the health and well-being of patients first, treating every person with respect and care, and upholding the honour and noble tradition of the nursing profession.</p> <figure class="subtopic-fullsize-img"> <img class="responsive" src="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/cityassets/Media%20Images%202/International%20Nurses%20Day%206%20.jpeg" alt="" /> </figure></span> <p> In line with this year’s theme, the City is strengthening the role of nurses not only as caregivers, but as compassionate leaders within the healthcare system. Continued investment in training, wellness, and professional development helps ensure that nurses are supported in delivering high-quality, patient-centred care to every resident who walks through the doors of a City clinic.</p><p>City Health staff also participate in Caring Conversations – an initiative that creates space for reflection, emotional support, and meaningful connection among colleagues and patients alike. These engagements reinforce the empathy, respect, and human connection that remain at the heart of nursing.</p><p>‘To our nurses – thank you for the compassion, dignity, and humanity you bring to your work every single day. Whether comforting a patient, supporting a family, or caring for communities in times of uncertainty, your service changes lives in profound ways. By renewing your pledge, you reaffirm your commitment to caring without prejudice, protecting human dignity, and placing the well-being of others at the centre of everything you do. You are not only caregivers, but trusted pillars of hope and healing in our communities,’ added Councillor Higham.  </p> <figure class="subtopic-fullsize-img"> <img class="responsive" src="https://resource.capetown.gov.za/cityassets/Media%20Images%202/International%20Nurses%20Day%204%20.jpeg" alt="" /> </figure>​​ <p>Caption 1: City Health nurses and Councillor Higham (sixth from left, back row) during an event to renew the Nurses Pledge.</p><p>Caption 2 and 3 : Images of previous events</p>2026-05-11T22:00:00Z1
