Hanga Health Center News

 At Hanga Health Center works and new endeavors never stop. Currently work is coming into completion: the installation of X-ray machine. By regulations of the Health Department of the government the equipment has to be inspected and certified by the government. So this mid June a team of inspectors from Dodoma came to the Health Center for the inspection. Recommendations were made for some adjustments and improvements. Soon the machine will be in use. Thanks to Frater Lucius for his vision that the Health Center has this machine which will alleviate the worry of many patients travelling far to Songea Regional Hospital or Peramiho for the service.
