Dr Lemoh’s vision became a reality in June 2012 when the hospital opened and has since treated over 19,000 children. It is the 2nd only Children’s Hospital in the country.
The hospital has 15 plus beds but can overflow to 20 beds. The staff vaccinate over 50 children a week and for those that cannot get to the hospital they send out nurses on a motorbike to far reaching villages to vaccinate the children. The hospital is staffed by medical professionals from the local community who take pride in their work and take full responsibility for running the hospital.
