    As Rwanda celebrates 18th Liberation and 50th Independence on July1, 2012, the Rwanda Defence Forces has dedicated the healthcare outreach program to treat the needy population.

    The Army Week Healthcare program that is being conducted by Rwanda Military hospital will treat patients in Rusizi and Nyamasheke districts from 24-30 June.

    According to the RDF, the Army Medical Outreach to the needy population signifies true liberation and Independence. They believe that a healthy population translates to human security that the national leadership strives to achieve for all Rwandans.

    “The RDF not only defends the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the country but engages in many other activities aimed at true independence of Rwandans,” says the RDF leadership.

    About eight thousand people of Rusizi and Nyamasheke districts will benefit from this medical outreach whereby Rwanda Military Hospital hasl deployed a specialized multidisciplinary medical team made up of orthopedic surgeons, general surgeons, ophthalmologists, physiotherapists, dermatologists, radiologists, gynecologists and other specialists to help the community.

    About 180 medical doctors and nurses including twenty six specialist doctors will left Kigali on Sunday June 24, 2012 to the two remote districts whose population has no access to specialized services often available in urban and referral hospitals.

    They are working hand in hand with local doctors to treat citizens at different Health Centres of Bushenge, Kibogora and Karengera in Nyamasheke district and Gihundwe, Nkanka, Muganza and Mibirizi in Rusizi district.

    The army week activities at the Gihundwe Health Center were launched by the Governor of the Western Province Celestin Kabahizi.

    He and other dignitaries commended the RDF for their contribution to the good health of all Rwandans and in other sectors.
