Mbabane Government Hospital is the national hospital in Mbabane, Eswatini with 500 beds. Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma worked at this hospital at a paediatric nurse in the 1980s.[2] In 2007, the Minister for Health and Social Welfare, Njabulo Mabuza, banned the media from entering the hospital.[3]

In September 2018 as the government had not paid suppliers the hospital ran out of food for patients.[4]
