These Health Heroes are Changing Lives!
Medical and health care services through UCSS provide routine, preventative, and diagnostic care for communities in rural Uganda. We are seeing excellent results. Our health teams regularly care for patients in the community that would not be able to access care any other way. These teams are saving lives.
On average over 3,000 patients are seen and cared for each month between the Nana Health Center (Level II) and the Nana Dispensary in Buluya. Additional services such as testing, community hygiene outreach, home health visits and maternity services have been added to increase the overall health of the community.
Highlights from the Medical Department
- Over 4,000 patients are seen at the Nana Health Center each month.
- Patients can receive laboratory testing to test for Malaria, H-Pylori, Typhoid, HIV, etc. at the Nana Health Center, and the Nana Dispensary in Buluya.
- Vital supplements and routine medicine including Vitamin A supplements and deworming medication are regularly distributed in the community.
- Many patients receive family planning/contraception remedies.
- Health care advocates regularly visit homes to help educate the community on hygiene, sanitation, and proper nutrition to fend off disease.
- Community Health Outreaches continue to expand into the neighboring communities, helping improve the health of more people.
