USAID Defeat TB

Herona Hospital is proud to now be a part of USAID Defeat TB, a 5 year project between 2017-2022.

​The aim is to end the TB epidemic in Uganda by:

• Increasing screening and detection of all forms of TB.

• Initiating complete treatments for all patients diagnosed with all forms of TB.

• Ensuring strong community systems to support the continuum of TB prevention, screening, diagnosis, care and treatment

• Enhancing leadership and technical capacity of the TB program at national and sub national levels to effectively guide and manage implementation of TB control activities

Herona Hospital would like to thank district health officer Dr Tumushabe Elly for linking us to this project.
