Description

The hospital on Mt. Elgon is expanding on its services every year, by adding facilities to the main structure. Last year MWM helped coordinate the construction of the x-ray building and was asked after a successful completion to design an orthopaedic workshop.

One side of the building is used for examination of the patients, workout and registration. The other side is used for making the artificial limbs for the patients and in case of emergency function as a second workout room. The construction of the project started in January 2012 and is planned to be completed in August that same year.
