Construction works for the 14 billion Kwacha district hospital in Lundazi district are progressing well.
District Medical Director, Allan Chisenga says that the construction works have already seen the Theatre, Maternity Wing, X-Ray and Kitchen being completed under phase one.
Breeze FM Correspondent, Mtambwa Nkhoma reports from Lundazi that Dr. Chisenga says that 4.6 billion Kwacha has so far been used under phase one of the three phase project.
He says that the district is now waiting for funds to start works for phase two, that will involve construction of administrative block, male and female wards.
And the district medical director says that the purpose for putting up another hospital in Lundazi, is to meet the demand because the current hospital was built for a small population.
The new hospital is located about 4 kilometres away from the boma on the Lundazi-Chipata road in Chief Mphamba’s area.
