The Zimbabwe Nurses Association condemned the Ministry of Health and Child Care for abandoning Progress Muzwa, a nurse who sustained severe injuries while saving a mother and child during a medical emergency. Enock Dongo, the association president, accused officials of leaving Muzwa without medical care, financial assistance, or professional recognition despite her heroic actions on August 5, 2025. The ministry failed to acknowledge that her injuries occurred during official duties, creating what Dongo described as a dangerous pattern of neglect toward healthcare workers. Muzwa represents many nurses across Zimbabwe who suffer workplace injuries while performing essential medical services. Government nurses currently earn less than 200 dollars monthly, making private medical treatment financially impossible.

The association demands immediate investigation of district health officials and ministry leadership regarding their handling of Muzwa's case. Dongo warned that this abandonment culture drives qualified nurses away from public service and overseas employment opportunities. The organization pledged continued advocacy until Muzwa receives proper medical treatment and compensation.
