Premier Service Medical Investments (PSMI) reopened its hospitals, Claybank (Gweru) and West End (Harare) after nurses, doctors and staff returned to work on Friday morning, reported The Sun.
Nurses and Staff were reportedly paid all their outstanding salaries last week and are expecting to receive more money this week.
PSMI spokesperson, Obey Nhakura confirmed the development, saying the two hospitals are ready to assist patients. He said:
I am happy that Claybank hospital staff are now back at work and ready to assist patients.
We are still assessing the situation at West End to see if all the doctors will return to work by end of the week.
But basically, everything is going back to normal at the hospitals.
PSMI closed the two hospitals last month after nurses went on strike over unpaid salaries.
The reopening of Claybank and Westend comes after the government last week on Tuesday extended a bail-out package of more than ZW$4 billion to Premier Service Medical Aid Society (PSMAS) to help restore its operational viability.
Secretary to the Service Commissions, Dr Rosemary Tsitsi Choruma said the financial support is expected to help clear third-party arrears, which had suffocated operations at the medical aid society.
