Inside the Mulago Specialized Women and Neonatal Hospital. Dubbed, an independence gift to the people of Uganda, the Mulago Specialized Women and Neonatal Hospital was officially opened on October 2018. The 9 storey facility offers world-class maternal and neonatal care to all mothers and babies in Uganda and is a key asset in Uganda’s bid to reduce the high rates of Maternal and newborn Mortality in the country.
