Residents of Karugutu have expressed concern to the local
leaders that the only health centre that is saving their lives is in a solely
state.
Mbaluha Mwemwece Deputy in charge of the health centre
revealed that recently the health center was de-roofed by heavy hail storm
Despite the facility is helping local people no leader has
come up to handle the situation yet they are having many referrals.
He said that UNCEF has come out to help the locals by
providing tents but the numbers of patients is over whelming.
The health center receives 5 patients per day who are referred,
and receive over 30 out patients.
Currently the health centre has only one ward that is used
by both men and women, delivering mothers, they also have one ambulance.
Mbaluha says the leaders must come in and lobby support for
the rehabilitation of the health center before people begin dying on verandas.
