Nurse's Uniforms

From 2007 when the Ongutoi Health Center began as a medicines distribution facility, it has grown considerably, now treating 3000 people per month for various health needs. In addition, the center facilitates the safe delivery of 1 to 2 babies per day. Current antenatal consultations suggest this number will increase dramatically.

This center facility is growing again, adding an operating theatre to assist the many minor surgeries currently

needed-thanks to caring Canadians. An AIDS care facility will also bring improved health in this area, since the HIV rate has reached an alarming 17%.

Ongutoi’s current staff of nurses and administrative support is well underpaid by Ugandan standards and it is only their deep concern for this needy community that continues to motivate them to serve with minimal salary support. The center will soon need a physician and AIDS care staff as well as housing support.

High Adventure seeks help to provide support for Ongutoi Health Center staff at reasonable Ugandan standards.
