The two institutions signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that will see 15 students in their third or fourth year of Bachelor of Nursing and Midwifery Science and second year Certificate in Enrolled Nursing and Midwifery Science benefit from practical training experiences.

The partnership also extends to programmes including a Diploma in Pharmacy and a Certificate in Pharmacy, enhancing the scope of learning opportunities for aspiring healthcare professionals. 

According to the Rector of Welwitchia Health Training Centre, Andreas Mwoombola, both institutions have a shared vision, which is to prepare students to be competent practitioners equipped to contribute meaningfully to the healthcare sector.

The collaboration is poised to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, ensuring that graduates are well-prepared for the demands of the healthcare industry. 

“Our collective goal in working together is to create experiences that inspire students to acquire practical expertise and prepare them to work in our country’s health sector as competent practitioners,” he said.

Meanwhile, CEO of Rhino Park Private Hospital, Martin Van Niekerk highlighted the significance of the partnership, particularly as the hospital approaches its 30th anniversary.

He also said the MoU with Welwitchia Health Training Centre marks a strategic move for Rhino Park, reinforcing its commitment to supporting the education and development of future healthcare professionals. 

“The signing of the MoU comes at a significant time in the history of our hospital, as Rhino Park will be celebrating their 30th anniversary in 2024 and Welwitchia Health Training Centre will be the third higher-education institution the hospital has signed agreements with,” he said.
