Said a nurse:<\/p>\n<p>We are appealing for the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) to conduct an immediate audit and encourage all lovely Zimbabweans to shun getting treatment at Mater Dei as it is a center of traumatizing employees.<\/p>\n<p>How can one get treated at a hospital where staff is demoralised?<\/p>\n<p>Meals are hectic, cabbage and chunks on a daily basis, and boiled stuff which even a pig cannot consume.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the food is highly subsidized, it\u2019s not a proper meal.<\/p>\n<p>Contacted for a comment, the Mater Dei administrator, Sister Maureen Jameson told CITE that they don\u2019t discuss internal affairs, such as salaries, with outsiders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
