The Story
Masanga Hospital is a 150-bed tertiary care and teaching facility located in Sierra Leone, serving a catchment area of approximately 440,000 people and receiving nationwide referrals. Masanga Hospital has built a strong reputation within the Sierra Leone healthcare system. Our work is underpinned by three core pillars: Clinical Care, Education, and Research.
We are a member of the University of Sierra Leone Teaching Hospital Complex (USLTHC), and Masanga offers 5 high-quality education programs. Our students work in almost all government hospitals across the country.
Most patients have to pay for their healthcare at the point of access, although the cost is subsidised by several European NGOs including Masanga UK. There is no health insurance. Other than children under 5 years old and pregnant women, patients and their families have to cover healthcare costs themselves.
Masanga Hospital Charity Fund serves to support patients who are unable to pay for the healthcare they need, particularly for lifesaving treatment. Many patients have to decline investigations and medications, or even admission, because they cannot afford it. All patients must be admitted with a relative or caregiver, who provides all their food and personal care, and this puts additional financial burden on families whilst the caregiver cannot work. This charity fund relies on donations, and it is currently almost empty! We would really appreciate any support to help us care for our patients.
Thank you for your support!
