Eye Care Access: Kavango East and West launched a cataract surgical eye campaign at Intermediate Rundu Hospital, targeting 400+ patients to prevent avoidable blindness and restore vision. Polio Prevention: Khomas and Omaheke polio vaccination campaigns ended after traces of polio type 2 were found in sewage, with officials urging parents to ensure children aged 0–10 are fully vaccinated. Patient Complaints Reform: The Health Professions Council and the Ministry rolled out a new SOP for managing complaints, stressing accountability and trust-building rather than punishment. Maternal Health Infrastructure: Rupara’s maternity ward construction is nearing completion, with plans to improve maternal and child services in Kavango West. Menstrual Health Support: Lil-Lets donated 6,000 sanitary pad packs to support menstrual health initiatives, tackling both access and stigma.
