 Afriegypt Health Services has organized a health outreach for children so as to give back to its community. It was carried out on the May 20th 2022 at Ashraf’s Islamic institute in Jinja city.

 A pediatrician accompanied by a nurse implemented this outreach. The school children were checked and most of them examined by the doctor.

 During the outreach, the most common diseases were Malaria, Anemia, H. pylori, Eczema and common cold. Preventive measures were emphasized by the doctor to the teachers of those children as reduce on the risk of infecting others.

 A health education talk covering sanitation, water usage and hygiene was done and emphasis was put on general and individual cleanliness. Consultation, general checkup and treatment were given to those who were found to be sick.

WOMEN’S HEALTH AWARENESS CAMPAIGN 

The intention of the hospital was to empower, educate and improve women awareness on their health and well-being as they are a big part of Uganda’s society. In a bid to recognize the value and importance of women in the society, Afriegypt Health Services offered a free women health awareness week from the 8th- 12th of march 2022 on both their general and reproductive health.

 On 8th march, an event was held at the hospital premises to celebrate women’s day and was attended by over 75 ladies from within jinja and the surrounding areas. Our distinctive and well qualified doctors offered early detection and prevention of breast cancer & cervical cancer and education on important topics on health care, nutrition and diet, healthy lifestyle.

 In this process, over 100 free consultations & 233 free radiology studies were done and several referrals were sent to cancer institute Kampala for cases of breast cancer and cervical cancer. Those with benign lesions and all were advised to do a routine follow up.

 Several high delegates appreciated and encourage search campaigns to be offered to the community as it has benefited them a lot.
