Training costs “Additional training sonographer”:
Due to the corona pandemic and the revision of the ultrasound training, the training was closed in 2021 and no candidate could start the training in 2021 at the academic hospital KCMC in Moshi.
The Foundation has found Regina Namumba , a highly experienced sonographer with whom the Foundation worked fruitfully at the Mount Meru hospital in Arusha , willing to provide intensive hands-on training to our graduate sonographer Jackline Shirima. Regina now works in Tabora at the Mamola hospital 800 km away from Arusha.
The travel accommodation and training costs were paid by the Foundation.
Bank charges:
Monthly fees must be paid to the bank.
Deferred costs:
It can be noted that due to the corona, testing of the ultrasound devices to be purchased has been delayed and the purchase of the ultrasound devices will take place at the beginning of 2022.
The devices have now been ordered but will be paid for in early 2022.
