First Mochudi Visit


My primary project will be to work with a research project in the village of Mochudi. Today I visited the clinic in Mochudi for the first time. The clinic is on the grounds of the Deborah Retief Memorial Hospital. The picture above is of the hospital's school of nursing.

  1. Hi Katie,
    Is there a shortage of nurses in Botswana? I'd love to know more about Nursing Education in Mochudi and Gaborone.

  2. Yes, there is definitely a shortage of well trained nurses in Botswana. I have met with 2 of the nursing professors at U of Botswana and gotten a better idea of the challenges they face-- some are similar to those we face in the US.
