Zimbabwe's health minister says the government finished upgrading student nurse housing at Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals, and the place went from holding 40 people to fitting 353 after getting new plumbing, solar panels, and a renovated pool. Douglas Mombeshora told reporters that Mbuya Nehanda Maternity Hospital should reopen by late January with fresh beds and equipment, while Mpilo Central Hospital in Bulawayo started its first round of fixes back in October.

The nurse dorms at Parirenyatwa got eight boreholes, a massive water tank, and a 120-kilowatt solar setup that keeps everything running off-grid. Mbuya Nehanda had to shut down completely, so maternity cases got moved to the main hospital while contractors worked on the building. The president visited Parirenyatwa earlier this year, saw how beat-up everything looked, and told officials to hurry up with the renovations.

Mombeshora mentioned that the main Parirenyatwa hospital renovation is still in planning mode, but crews should start work after the new year once the public works department approves the budget estimates.
