The University of Guyana Medical School (UGMS) is “on stream” to being reaccredited, according to Dean of the Faculty of Health Sciences Dr. Emmanuel Cummings.
Cummings told Stabroek News that a recently submitted self-study as well as plans to construct a clinical instruction facility are expected to significantly impact the decision to reaccredit the Medical School.
He explained that Cabinet has appointed a task force to oversee the construction of the building, which is being funded in part by a US$1M donation from Yesu Persaud, of Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL).
