Our Employees
It is hard to believe, but with a huge amount of work to be done, there is only one doctor permanently employed at the hospital – Sister Mirosława Góra, who is also the director of this facility. Sister Małgorzata is a trained surgeon, but in her daily work, she combines her knowledge of various medical (and non-medical) disciplines. She has been on a mission in Zambia for 30 years. Interestingly, she was the European Champion in canoeing during her student days!
Two other Polish nuns support sister Mirosława – sister Edyta Wójtowicz and sister Krystyna Matusz. Sister Edyta is a radiology technician, but in practice, she has a wide range of responsibilities (and skills!). She performs X-rays and ultrasound scans, assists in surgical procedures, administers general and local anaesthesia, and supervises the hospital pharmacy. Sister Krystyna is a trained nurse and is mainly responsible for the administrative work in the facility. Additionally, she is often on the anaesthesiology duty. The other personnel consists of Sisters from Zambia and lay people.
