Goli Health Centre IV, under the Nebbi Diocese Church of Uganda in Nebbi District, has been honoured with a prestigious Quality Services Award on December 5, 2024.

The award was presented in Kampala by the Uganda Protestant Medical Bureau (UPMB), the apex coordinating body for Protestant health services in Uganda, which represents a network of 330 faith-based health institutions across the country.

Dr. Jetho Okoni, the in-charge of Goli Health Centre IV, received the award on behalf of the institution.

The recognition comes as a welcome development for the locals, for whom Goli Health Centre IV serves as the primary medical facility, especially in emergencies.

The centre’s role as a vital healthcare provider in the region has made this award particularly significant.

Nebbi Diocesan Secretary, Rev. Can. Ungi Christopher, acknowledged the achievement, highlighting the significant improvements in services at the facility.

He praised the staff for their unwavering commitment to providing quality care year-round.

Retired Archbishop of the Church of Uganda, Dr. Henry Luke Orombi, expressed his joy, saying, “We are excited to hear good things coming out of our health centre. There are many under UMPB, yet we have been recognised. Keep it up!”

Founded in 1957, the Uganda Protestant Medical Bureau initially served as a liaison between the Government of Uganda, donors, and member hospitals.

Today, it operates as a national umbrella organisation with a broader mandate, representing member facilities from across the country.

Goli Health Centre IV is a Private Not-for-Profit unit under the Uganda Protestant Medical Bureau, established more than five decades ago.

The facility serves a wide community, including people from Nebbi and Zombo Districts, as well as communities from the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.
