At the end of the main Port Reitz road is the Port Reitz District Hospital. The hospital operates a mental institute, a children's hospital and prosthetics centre. A funeral director is located opposite the hospital complex. The road leading to the complex has come under political criticism due to the neglect of upkeep.[2]
