Jinja Regional Referral Hospital (JRRH) is set to revolutionize healthcare in the region, thanks to its visionary director, Dr. Alfred Yayi, and partnerships with non-profit organizations.
Dr. Yayi announced that patients suffering from lung complicated diseases in the region will soon be saved from the burden of traveling long distances to Kampala.
This relief comes through Impact Africa Services International (IASI), a non-profit organization procuring and installing dialysis equipment at JRRH.
