C-Care Uganda, one of the country’s private health care providers organized a celebration ahead of World Premature Day at their C-Care IHK facility in Namuwongo.
The event focused on raising awareness about premature births and sensitizing the public about the neonatal care of these babies while offering a platform for their families to share experiences and encourage others in similar situations.
Azhar Sundhoo, the Chief Executive Officer at C-Care Uganda expressed his appreciation to the various experts that look after the new born babies for being robust caretakers.
Speaking about the importance of having a support system, Dr. Miriam Musinga Mutero, General Manager C-Care IHK emphasized the role that parents play in the development of these infants “Let us also take a moment to recognize the families—the mothers, fathers, and caregivers—whose courage and love fuel the journey toward health and wellness for their children. Your resilience inspires us to do more, to be better, and to push the boundaries of what we can accomplish together.”
Namukasa Beatrice, one of the parents of the premature babies at C-Care extended her sincere gratitude to the team of doctors that showed tremendous support to her family in time of crisis when her child was born prematurely.
C-Care has delivered almost 703 preterm babies since 2017. These numbers call for a cause of concern that needs to be addressed by creating awareness around premature births and what needs to be done in support.
