TSHELANYEMBA nursing school in Maphisa, Matabeleland South Province, is set to reopen following a lengthy closure due to the unavailability of nurse tutors.
This was revealed by the Deputy Minister of Health and Child Care Sleiman Kwidini, while responding to questions at the National Assembly on Wednesday.
Deputy Minister Kwidini assured the nation that measures are in place to prevent future disruptions in training.
“Tshelanyemba in Maphisa temporarily stopped training due to the non-availability of teaching staff, mainly nurse tutors.
The tutor who was at Tshelanyemba was promoted to be a principal tutor at Ingutsheni School of Mental Health Nursing, leaving no tutor at the school.
“However, the province is now ready to reopen Tshelanyemba in September 2025 as there is now a tutor to run the programme,” said Dep Min Kwidini.
