The Staff members of Kagando Hospital, a brain child of Kagando Rural Development Centre (KARUDEC) yesterday visited Katwe Health Centre III and Katwe Prisons Health Centre II in Katwe-Kabatooro Town Council, Busongora County South in Kasese District for a support supervision exercise.
Lay reader Haggai Masereka, the Communications Officer at KARUDEC said the visit was part of the ongoing efforts by Kagando Hospital to strengthen health service delivery in the lower-level facilities across the district.
According to him, the main purpose of the activity was to support the facilities especially in improving service delivery and to also ensure that Ugandans benefit from the shared expertise of health workers and live a better and health life.
During the exercise, health workers from Kagando Hospital worked closely with staff at the visited facilities to identify gaps, share skills, mentor and guide them on best the practices in patient care, record keeping, infection prevention and overall facility management.
Katwe Health Centre III serves a large population in Katwe-Kabatooro Town Council and other surrounding areas while Katwe Prisons Health Centre II serves inmates and staff at Katwe Government Prison.
Both facilities play a critical role in bringing health services closer to the people.
Kagando Hospital has been implementing the said activities with other sister health facilities, working together to offer quality health services to the community.
