Achievements and Performance
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | JPIP medical trustees stayed in regular contact with paediatric medical and nursing staff in Jinja to support their work within the Nalufenya Children’s Hospital, including capacity building and linking to the Swedish Paediatric Health Initiative Project. This included a visit to Sweden by senior JPIP paediatric staff with face-to-face meetups with our medical trustee based in Sweden. The purchased and repaired oxygen concentrators and other equipment sponsored by JPIP continued to be in regular use in Jinja Regional Referral Hospital Children’s Wards (known as Nalufenya Children’s Hospital) during this year, treating children with pneumonia, malaria and sepsis. The maintenance of these machines was ensured due to the prior training that JPIP sponsored for the hospital’s engineers. Planning continues on a capital project to install mosquito netting for children’s wards. |
