RE: Medical Consumables Assistance to The Ear, Nose, Throat and Audiological Community Outreach Services (ENTACOS)
The ENTACOS (Ears, Nose, Throat and Audiological Community Outreach Services) Camp team is kindly requesting for drugs, cotton, disinfectants, gloves, equipment and finance assistance towards the free health camp that is going to take place at Kawempe - Lugoba A, Lugoba B, Jinja Kalooli, in Nansana Municipality, Wakiso District from 16th to 21st October 2023
This engagement with the general public from places of Kawempe, Lugoba A, Lugoba B, Jinja Kalooli, Kisumu, Wamala, Katooke and areas of Nansana town with an estimate of more than 1,000 people.
Our health care outreach model focuses on E.N.T, rehabilitative and preventative care. The ENTACOS Camp team organizes medical camps in partnership with Medical Students, Audiologists and Doctors from Mulago National Referral Hospital, Kayunga Regional Referral hospital, Naguru Regional Referral Hospital and nurses. We also partner with Makerere Walter lead Project for HIV testing, counseling and safe male circumcision. The big turnout is always a clear indication of the urgent need for medical care in the community.
The ENTACOS Camp team started a genuine free treatment initiative thus bring health services nearer to people believed not to afford accessing treatment as recommended by the doctors more so in the area of E.N.T and other treatable diseases for example Malaria and other Illnesses such as Allergies, Fungal Infections, Syphilis, Joints & Back pains etc.
Your assistance to the team is so much needed in the way of promoting health seeking behaviors to the local people and inform the government that E.N.T specialists are needed in district hospitals and Health Centers IV to save lives of many Ugandans who loose lives due to foreign objects problems of which such services are only found in regional referral hospitals.
We are exceedingly grateful for positive response to the above cause.
Yours in service
Dr. Asaf Tomusange
Chief Coordinator
