Deputy Minister of Health and Child Care Dr Aldrin Musiiwa has said Plumtree Hospital was upgraded to its present status of the standard district hospital.
The deputy Minister said under the World Bank Family Health Project Phase two, Plumtree hospital was upgraded to its present status of a standard district hospital.
"Currently, the hospital is receiving modern equipment under the Chinese loan facility. For example, it has received a digital ex-ray machine, new autoclaves and other pieces of equipment. It is the Ministry's plans to upgrade Plumtree hospital into a general hospital," he said.
"However, the current negative Macro-economic environment is limiting our progress."
