Zanzibar's health officials told a group of nurses who just wrapped up their mainland Tanzania internships to keep things professional and compassionate when they get back to work. Permanent Secretary Mngereza Mzee Miraji said these graduates are a big part of the government's plan to beef up primary care and get more services out to rural spots.
The Director of Nursing and Midwifery warned that bad behavior will get people bounced, and the graduates need to actually learn the professional rules to avoid drama. Officials covered licensing stuff through the Zanzibar Nursing and Midwifery Council, reminding everyone they need proper credentials before treating patients.
Several graduates thanked the ministry for setting up the internship program because it helped them feel way more confident about jumping into real healthcare work.
