Divine Mercy General Hospital 

---

Divine Mercy General Hospital was established in 2008 in response to the critical shortage of healthcare facilities in Uganda. Recognizing this urgent need, Father Bash took the initiative to found the hospital, with the generous support of a benefactor associated with the American Friends of the Father Bash Foundation, Inc. Since its inception, the hospital has played a vital role in addressing the growing healthcare challenges in Mbarara and its surrounding communities.

At present Divine Mercy Hospital offers a range of medical services, including general consultation, maternal and newborn care, lab services, surgery and inpatient services. Currently over 25 doctors and professionals attend to those seeking medical care.
