Job Description

EMERGENCY opened the Children’s Surgical Hospital in Entebbe to provide free paediatric surgical care in Uganda, one of the youngest countries in the world: more than half the population is under 15. When the hospital first opened in 2021, the mortality rate for children under five in Uganda was 43 for every 1,000 live births.

The hospital is a point of reference in Uganda for elective paediatric surgery, with operations planned in advance and organised through waiting lists in order to systematically tackle deep-set problems in Uganda and nearby countries. The hospital’s three operating theatres are used for surgery every day, improving the life chances of hundreds of patients every year. The opening of the Children’s Surgical Hospital led to a tripling of the number of paediatric surgery beds in the country.

Elective surgery mainly deals with birth defects, urological and gynaecological problems, abnormalities in the gastrointestinal tract, illnesses of the bile duct and cheiloschisis (or cleft lip, which affects one in every 800 children) and other general surgical conditions.

The facility boasts 100,000ft² (9,700m²) of floor space, 72 beds – six in intensive care, 16 in sub-intensive care and 50 in the ward – one observation and stabilisation ward, six outpatient clinics, a diagnostic centre, a laboratory for analysis, a blood bank and a pharmacy, as well auxiliary services such as a canteen and a laundry. It also has a Guest House: free-of-charge accommodation for patients and families coming to the hospital from afar.
