Nyangana District Hospital

The Hospital was founded in 1936 by the OSB sisters of Tutzig, this was then the only hospital for the whole Kavango Region. The hospital was renovated recently in 2003 with the help from the Luxembourg Government, Namibia Government and the Roman Catholic Church in Namibia

This is a 120 bed hospital with 3 Doctors, 16 Registered nurses, 14 Enrolled nurses, and some support staff and paramedical staff which gives us a total of 139 staff members for the District health provision. We have 8 Clinics, 52 Outreach points functioning under this District Hospital.Also there is a New Start Centre for Voluntary Counseling and Testing and also to treat the eligible clients with HAART. This program is financed by USAIDS for 5 years. This is a rural area and very under developed and it is difficult to get staff to come and work here. So we mainly depend on nearby foreign nationals for specialized areas like Medical Doctors and Registered nurses.
