WE'VE ACHIEVED IT ONCE MORE: Baylor Foundation Uganda actively supports quality management systems across 25 laboratory hubs located in four health regions: Fort Portal (7 hubs), Mubende (6 hubs), Bunyoro (6 hubs), and Mbale (6 hubs). We are happy to report that mmong these, 15 laboratories have successfully maintained international accreditation through the South African National Accrediation System @SABSApproved (SANAS). Additionally, three laboratories recently applied for accreditation and achieved success, further strengthening the network of high-standard diagnostic services. The three new entrant laboratory hubs that have been recommended for international accreditation are located in the Local Partner for Health Services (LPHS-E) region. These are Busolwe, Kapchorwa, and Bududa. @DKiragga, @TCHGlobalHealth, @cphluganda

Baylor Foundation Uganda is proud to participate in the #TBConference2024 under the theme “Advancing Multisectoral and Multistakeholder Engagement and Accountability to End TB and Achieve Zero Leprosy in Uganda.” We are committed to integrating resources to enhance TB screening and treatment outcomes across all activities. 💪 #EndTB Keynote speaker Dr. @TerezaKasaeva , Director of @WHO Global TB Programme, inspired us all! 🎉 We're thrilled to announce that 4 districts supported by our @USAID LPHS-E project—Bulambuli, Butebo, Kween, and Pallisa—ranked among the top 10 best-performing districts nationally in #TB indicators. Kudos to local health teams and @MinofHealthUG for driving innovation! 🙌 The Electronic Case-Based Surveillance System (eCBSS). This real-time tool has transformed TB case tracking in these districts, ensuring better data recording, monitoring and reporting. Together, we are strengthening health systems for lasting impact in Uganda. 🌟 #HealthInnovation
