Today, Bulamu, the Ministry of Health Uganda, and Rotary International officially launched a comprehensive in-service newborn care training at St. Francis Hospital Nsambya.

The Rotary International-funded 4-week training has brought together 16 health workers from public health facilities across Uganda to strengthen their knowledge and practical skills in newborn care. After the training, participants will return to their health facilities and share the skills with their teams, extending the impact to more mothers and newborns nationwide.

This is one of the many initiatives Bulamu is implementing to improve Maternal and Newborn Health services in Uganda.

This award is a powerful recognition of a life dedicated not just to professional excellence, but to impact, compassion, and service.
