Vacancy: UBH Operations Director’s Post Re-Advertised
Published: 2016 May 15 11:00:36 (4480 Views)
THE Health Services Board has reportedly ordered the United Bulawayo Hospitals to re-advertise the post of operations director at the institution about five months after the interviews were conducted.
This has sparked fears that the development might see a new face taking over the high post.
Situated in the eastern part of Bulawayo, UBH has 650 beds and is one of the two principal referral centres for the southern part of the country. The position of operations director fell vacant when the incumbent, Mr Elliot Mashingaidze left the institution at the end of last year on retirement.
Last week, the position was advertised in both Chronicle and The Herald newspapers but it was not stated that it was being re-advertised and did not say what those who were interviewed for the position in January this year were supposed to do.
The position was first advertised in October last year and a dozen applicants were short-listed and interviewed for the position.
However, they have not been informed of the outcome of the interviews. Last week, the Health Services Board, is reported to have instructed the UBH chief executive officer Nonhlanhla Ndlovu, to re-advertise the position. Contacted for comment on Friday about the issue, Mrs Ndlovu referred questions to the Health Services Board.
Efforts to get a comment from the Health Services Board chairman Lovemore Mbengeranwa were fruitless.
However, sources said the Health Services Board is said to have asked for the post to be re-advertised because it had only appeared in the Chronicle and wasn’t flighted in The Herald.
The incumbent would be in charge of the hospital’s operations department “which provides supportive assistance and coordination of services to the other departments of the hospital and is responsible for efficient systems and controls, necessary supplies, adequate equipment and facilities, and, of course, physicians and patients”.
Falling under the operations director are the Central Stores, Human Resources, Hospital Food Service, Health Information and Mortuary departments.
Another source at the hospital said a prominent Bulawayo based administrator who has a Masters Degree in Business Administration and is a PHD candidate with a South African university, Mr Nkululeko Ndlovu, another person from the National University of Science and Technology and the acting Operations Director at the hospital a Ms Ndlovu were the three names that were shortlisted and their names forwarded to the board.
