He further explained that investing in healthcare services is part of the sixth phase government’s strategy, under the leadership of President Samia Suluhu Hassan, to ensure medical services are improved and reach more people in both rural and urban areas.
These new services are expected to reduce the number of patients who need to travel to other regions or abroad for the diagnosis and treatment of digestive system-related diseases. They will also provide an opportunity for healthcare professionals at Njombe Regional Hospital to offer more efficient care.
Hon. Mtaka urged the people of Njombe to visit the hospital for regular health checkups to prevent severe conditions that can be avoided with early treatment.
