Technology can’t replace the human touch, says Health ministry

Health and Child Care permanent secretary Aspect Maunganidze has reminded newly-qualified health personnel that while technology may sharpen patient monitoring and clinical decision-making, but it can never replace the human touch of a nurse.

Maunganidze made the remarks this Tuesday at a nurses’ graduation ceremony  at Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals.

A total of 227 nurses graduated in various specialty areas.
