• The Children’s Ward is the largest single ward in Kitovu Hospital. It has about 60 beds for acute patients, and includes an isolation room which is used for infectious patients, but also for babies and children with tetanus who benefit from the quiet environment. We are flexible, and at times, whole bays become “isolation bays”, such as during an outbreak of measles. Also during Malaria peak season the ward is sometimes filled with more than three times the usual capacity.
