Dear HIFA colleagues,
On behalf of the HIFA Steering Group, I am delighted to welcome Cardinal Rugambwa Hospital as a new Supporting Organisation.
'Cardinal Rugambwa Hospital (CRH) is a healthcare facility, owned by the Board of Trustees of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Dar es Salaam and managed by the devoted Theresian Sisters, CRH has grown from a modest health unit established in 1986 in Ukonga into a fully recognized Regional Referral Hospital as of June 2022. It is a dynamic center of excellence where compassionate care meets innovation, community transformation, partnerships and research despite the limited resources. Today, CRH stands proudly as a Safe Care Level 5 institution with an accredited laboratory at international standards, reflecting its commitment to quality, safety, and continuous improvement. The hospital offers specialized services including dialysis, rehabilitation, and comprehensive clinical care, while also serving as a growing hub for evidence-based practice. Equally, the hospital is deeply committed to empowering the next generation of healthcare leaders. By fostering youth engagement, mentorship, and capacity building, CRH invests in sustainable solutions that will shape the future of medicine, research, and community health. At its core, CRH remains guided by a mission of service, compassion, and excellence, continuing to evolve as a beacon of hope, innovation, and holistic care for all.
