Ron Smith Care Centre’s best housekeepers for October are second-time winners. Precious Mlimo and Nomusa Shabangu from River Lodge 2 were once again chosen to receive this award because of their teamwork, good communication, and because they don’t wait for their supervisor to tell them what to do – they take the initiative, see what needs to be done, and work really hard to do it. Pictured are Precious, Matron Avril Maltman, and Nomusa.
