OMI International Partner Series: Bugando Medical Centre​

May 10, 2021
To continue our international partner series, we would like to introduce the Bugando Medical Centre as our official partner in Tanzania.

Tanzania​

Tanzania is situated on the eastern side of Africa with a population of approximately 58 million people, making it Africa’s fifth largest country by population. With only one physician per 50,000 patients, Tanzania has one of the lowest ratios of physicians to patients worldwide.


​

Bugando Medical Centre​

Bugando Medical Centre was built by the Catholic Church and officially opened in 1971. Today the Medical Centre is a referral, consultant and university teaching hospital for the Lake and Western zones of Tanzania. It is situated along the shores of Lake Victoria in Mwanza City, the second largest city in Tanzania and the capital of the Lake and Western regions. Bugando Medical Centre has over 950 beds and employs approximately 1,300 people. There are 18 clinical departments and six administrative departments. A new radiotherapy center will be opening in the near future in the state-of-the-art oncology building. This will be the second radiotherapy center in the country, making the hospital a regional hub for cancer treatment. The aspiration to build a medical college in Western Tanzania was put forth in July of 1994. In September of 2003, the Catholic University College of Health Sciences opened (becoming Weill Bugando School of Medicine in 2007). The Medical School was named in honor of benefactors Joan and Sandford Weill.

OMI and Bugando Medical Centre Partnership​

In 2008, the Bugando Medical Centre in Tanzania (Weill Cornell Bugando) became an official partner of the Open Medical Institute. For more than 12 years now, Tanzanian fellows have been participating in various OMI programs; more than 260 fellowships and 32 observerships have taken place since then.

Our local coordinator in Tanzania, Lucy Mogele, offers valuable information and support for physicians who are interested in the OMI Programs.

Hospital managing director Prof Abel Makubi announced over the weekend when speaking to the head of communication units from the institutes under the Ministry for Health, Community Development, Gender, Elderly and children who were on official tour to see the success achieved in the health sector over the past four years.

He said the new institutes will have two towers whereby one of them will have fifteen floors and another one with ten floors.

This is part of the hospital’s move to complement government efforts to improve health delivery as well as reducing the number of patients, who are being referred to Dar es Salaam and abroad for cardiovascular-related treatment , he said.

Prof Makubi also said the facility had increased the number of health providers at different levels in the country and from abroad such as nurses, doctors and specialists and other experts.

He thanked the government for its efforts to train medical experts and specialists enabling the facility to offer services such as dental, optical, orthopedic, brain and neuro just to mention a few.

“Surgery services have highly improved for many patients of all ages including children with spinal bifida problem, ”he added.
Prof Makubi applauded Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) and Muhimbili Orthopedic Institute (MOI) for a great work and collaborative support.

Meanwhile, the facility had served 2bn/- spent annually when refereeing patients suffering from cancer to Ocean Road Cancer Institute.(ORCI).

“The facility received 5.5bn/- to build a special building in collaboration between the government and development partners who made it possible to procure machines to treat people with cancer problems. I would like to thank the government for its commendable efforts,” he said.

He said currently, 90 per cent of patients with cancer related cases are treated at the facility where initial over 50 per cent were referred to ORCI.

For his part, the radiography at the facility Alex Mpugi said before the use of machine they used to treat patients with cancer related problems using chemicals.

"I call on the public especially women to adhere to cervical cancer and breast screening regularly for their future health,”he reminded.

The Dr Fabian Massaga, the surgeon at the facility said the facility had renovated and expanded theatre rooms to 13 from 6 rooms.

He said as a result the number of patients operated had increased from 20 to 50 and therefore reduced the number of those who were waiting for surgery services for three months.

BTW sisi tuko level ya heart institute


Bugando Heart Institute​

Construction of a Cardiac Institute (+ Cath lab):​

BMC is currently expanding its medical care in a number of super specialities including Cardiothoracic Surgery and Cardiology, due to the growing burden of heart diseases in the region. This has been associated with high mortality and morbidities due to lack of advanced and accessible cardiovascular services in this region.

The number of patients with heart diseases has been on increase at BMC, overriding the available resources, thus calling for a need to expand the cardiovascular services.

It is also now estimated 30-40% of patients attended at Jakaya Kikwete Cardiac Institute (JKCI) in Dar es Salaam, are from this zone. In 2017, among Paediatric patients with heart disease at BMC, 17% of them required surgery and were referred to JKCI. Majority of them could not afford to pay for transport, accommodation and surgical costs.

Thus, BMC in collaboration with Mwanza Regional Commissioner (Hon.John Mongella) and the Ministry of Health, Community Development, Gender, Elderly and Children has developed a proposal for development of Bugando Cardiac Institute in Mwanza to meet the increasing demand of this superspecialized Heart Service in this region.

Currently the sketch of the building (16 floors, twins, see below) has been completed. The construction of building is expected to cost 59billion.

Cancer center Mwanza inatibu 90% of wagonjwa pale sasa sijui vifaa unavyoongea unamaanisha nini? Bungando medical center over 1000 beds si level ya anything found in Kisumu or Kampala in terms of modern eqipments! Open heart surgeries zimekuwa zikifanyika since 2009! najua unabisha for the sake of embarassment baada ya kujua hata medical sector Mwanza is way ahead of Kisumu! BTW kuna Mwl Nyerere memorial hospital ipo Musoma, Mara region na pia Geita Referral Hospital ambazo standards zake Kisumu haina!

Pambaneni na hii kwanza!
