Summary of the initiative
Since 1978, the ‘Tegeta Mission Dispensary’ in Dar es Salaam has continued to provide a range of valuable essential medical and diagnostic services to a population of over 28,000 people. It already offers various valuable specialist and diagnostic services, but has no radiology equipment and patients have to travel to a district hospital 28 km away.
The ‘Rays of Life’ project wants to ensure the necessary equipment and furnishings for the start-up of a radiology service that will enhance diagnosis and prevention activities for a large population where this service is lacking.
