Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Health Minister, SYLVIA MASEBO says the Ministry will use the 3000 health workers who will be recruited to fill vacancy that will be left by those to be promoted.<\/p>\n

Ms. MASEBO says a number of health workers in different health facilities and institutions have upgraded their qualifications and are due for promotions.<\/p>\n

She says from the slots that will remain prospective health workers will be recruited to fill up the vacancies that will be created.<\/p>\n

The Minister said this during the launch of the 2023 National HIV, Counseling, and Testing and Treatment Day in Lusaka.<\/p>\n

She said the process of promoting and upgrading some officers has commenced and is ongoing.<\/p>\n

Ms. MASEBO noted that once the process is completed an advert will be placed for some new health practitioners to apply.<\/p>\n

She says that all the processes are expected to complete before the end of this year.<\/p>\n

Ms. MASEBO observed that a number of doctors have been getting salaries of intern doctors for over 5 to 10 years adding that this situation has to be corrected by promoting them.<\/p>\n

She says this decision has not been made by the Ministry of health alone but that all relevant stakeholders such as the Resident Doctors Associations and others have been involved.<\/p>\n
