The Ministry of Health has upgraded two health centers in Namisindwa District, a move aimed at improving healthcare services. 


The upgraded health centers are Mukoto Health Center 2 in Mukoto sub-county and Kitongo Health Center 2 in Bupoto sub-county.

Leonard Kitafuja, the Namisindwa District Chief Administrative Officer, says the health centers will be automatically promoted to Health Center 3, enabling them to provide more comprehensive services.

Jackson Wakweika, the Namisindwa LCV Chairperson noted that the health centers had been operating privately, with patients paying for services with a fair fee. Wakweika is hopeful that the upgrade will bring government support, including medical staff, security, and infrastructure development among others.

Mukoto Sub County residents, Peter Wamutu and Patrick Wasike have welcomed the upgrade saying it will make health care services more accessible.
