One of the goals of our Management Committee is to raise the profile of Church of Uganda Kisiizi Hospital. This is partly because it will help us to recruit senior staff.
As Kisiizi is quite rural and isolated, and about 7 hours drive to Kampala, the natural reaction of someone in Kampala being asked to consider working in Kisiizi resembles that of a Londoner asked to go and work in Iceland! He or she may ask " why ever would I go there - it's a long way away, its cold and they speak a different language!"
However as we develop our range and quality of services and participate in a range of programmes Kisiizi is becoming more noticed.
One of our elective students from Perth presented his experience and won first prize in the University of Western Australia creating a lot of interest.
Dr. Simon Hardman, who worked in Kisiizi for about 6 months as part of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health Global Links programme shared his experience to the regional paediatric meeting in Leeds and won a prize for best presentation.
In addition to visits from the Prime Minister of Uganda in December 2013 and the Minister of Health of Buganda Kingdom more recently the hospital has also hosted the Archbishop of Uganda who visited in July.
Kisiizi has also featured in a range of publications [these can be found on the hospital website Click here ] and most recently an article was published in Contact, the World Council of Churches magasine, which goes out in English and French and reaches 39 different countries.
