A new district hospital in Mozambique's Tete province will end the long-standing challenge of accessing specialized healthcare for communities in four districts. The Cahora Bassa District Hospital, a 446 million meticais investment by Hidroeléctrica de Cahora Bassa, is strategically located to serve the populations of Marara, Magoe, Marávia, and Changara.
The facility will feature 65 beds and provide essential services, including a surgical theater, maternity ward, and outpatient consultations. Chairman Tomás Matola emphasized that it is a turnkey project, fully equipped and furnished to be operational upon inauguration. Health Minister Ussen Isse stated the hospital would address urgent medical situations that previously required difficult transfers.
The six-month construction project is also expected to generate local employment. Upon completion, it will become the 166th health unit in Tete province, significantly expanding the regional care network.
