On December 14th we had the pleasure of welcoming Hon Dr.
Douglas Mombeshora, Minister of Health and Childcare, to our
Runyararo Health Centre in Chimanimani. He was shown around
the facility by Alistair Johnston and Brian Madamombe from
NMSI. The Minister was very impressed with the hospital and
indicated that the facility will be opened by His Excellency the
President of Zimbabwe sometime next year.
The key focus around all CSR programs undertaken by NMS Infrastructure will be Health, Welfare, Education and Youth Sport. Underpinning, but not exclusive, is a child focus.
The 4 key fundamentals that are considered when in the decision making process for CSR activities are:
• PROJECT SUSTAINABILITY
CSR projects should be sustainable and provide a long term benefit.
• EFFECTIVE RETURN ON INVESTMENT
Any investment needs to demonstrate a real benefit. Being in Partnership requires benefit to both parties but the end user has the biggest benefit.
• BENEFITS THE COMMUNITY
Any CSR activity considered is right for the community and leads to a real improvement, whether on Health, Welfare or Education.
• SUPPORTS COUNTRY DEVELOPMENT GOALS
Any activity promotes and supports the objectives trying to be achieved in Zimbabwe.
Following the ceremonial opening of Cowdray Park, the Health Centre was officially handed over to the Ministry of Health and Child Care on 4th August 2023.
NMSI representative Tendayi Gatsi and Provincial Medical Directorate Teams (PMD) examined the facility room by room to verify the equipment inventory list, before the Health Centre was signed over to the PMD.
