The Ministry of Health and Social Services invited an nbc News team for a tour of the Katutura Intermediate Hospital to observe the progress made so far in the renovation of the building.

Renovations at the Katutura Intermediate Hospital are about 50% complete, says the medical superintendent at the hospital, Nelago Amagulu.

The dilapidated state of the referral hospital made the rounds in the media, with patients mostly calling for its renovation.

The Director of Primary Health Care Services in the Ministry of Health and Social Services, Naemi Shoopala, has called on all nurses to evolve and sharpen their technology skills as the world becomes increasingly digitised.
