Police Urge Vigilance Amid Ongoing Terror Threats

HEALTH

In a bid to improve health services, district leaders in Lira have launched a campaign against the alleged sale of blood in government health facilities. This move follows complaints from the public accusing some medical facilities of selling blood to patients.

The Uganda Red Cross Society, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, is currently conducting a supervision visit in four districts, including Lira, to assess the level of service delivery and the state of emergency medical services in the region. The inspection aims to establish good practices, identify challenges, and recommend interventions.

Health officials in Lira are urging the Ministry of Health to fast-track the construction of a blood bank to reduce the distance between Gulu and Lira, where blood is currently sourced. They are also requesting more fuel for ambulances due to the growing demand for ambulance services.

Districts are currently relying on Uganda Red Cross Society’s fully equipped ambulances, which play a supportive role to the government in evacuation and blood donation mobilization. Officials have also recommended referring medical workers to communities to shorten distances and cut costs for patients.

In a joint meeting with Ministry of Health, Uganda Red Cross Society, and district officials, Lira City Mayor Sam Atul warned that no health facility should sell blood, as it is donated for free. He urged the public to be vigilant and report any medical personnel attempting to sell blood.

The campaign aims to ensure that health services are accessible and free from exploitation, prioritizing the well-being of patients in Northern Uganda.
