Our everyday life

Every day, we admit new patients to the Katondwe Mission Hospital. They arrive from the neighbourhood as well as from furthest corners of Zambia. They come to find relief in their pain and alleviate their conditions.

The most common diseases are sickle cell anaemia, tropical splenic enlargement, malaria, tuberculosis and HIV. There are also many cases of cancer, heart disease or kidney disease. Many patients are malnourished.

We regularly deliver babies and perform caesarean sections.

Occasionally, we provide help to patients injured by wild animals, for example, the chest drainage required after a hippopotamus attack.

Orthopaedic consultations, procedures and surgeries are also performed here.

Every day we do our best to provide our patients with medical care at the highest possible level. This is why we appreciate every form of support for the Katondwe Mission Hospital. Every donation increases our ability to save people’s health and lives.
