Bunda Council Designated Hospital
P.O box 424 Bunda- Mara- Tanzania
January 26, 2016
Bunda Council Designated Hospital, as the name applies, was decided to have such status, after an agreement between the government of Tanzania (through Ministry of Health and Social Welfare) and the ELCT, Mbulu Synod. It was inaugurated in 1992.
The need to have/establish DDH was based on the fact that the District of Bunda, had no district hospital. After considerations, negotiations and later a compromise, then, ELCT – Mbulu Synod teamed up with Norwegian Lutheran Mission to seek support from NORAD who agreed to construct the hospital with 80% of funds, while 20% donated by NLM. This agreement was, however, based on understanding that, the Government of Tanzania was to be responsible for all the recurrent budget for the hospital while the church – Mbulu Synod – to be responsible for development budget. Later, the ownership of the hospital was transferred to ELCT – Diocese in Mara Region (DMR) after the establishment of the latter as a diocese. Local contribution at district level towards the project was provision of free land, access road, water rights from adjacent Balili Hills, water storage tanks and an airstrip, the latter of which is yet due for completion.
.
It occupies an area of 5,560 m2. Access to the hospital is very convenient through an all-weather tarmac road running from Mwanza to Musoma.
During establishment on 1992 was called Bunda Designated District Hospital (BDDH). When Bunda district was divided into two councils in 2015, having Bunda District council and Bunda Town council, Bunda Designated District Hospital changed to Bunda Council Designated Hospital with respect to the changed designation of its location. The hospital has 200 approved bed form government since year 2000.
Currently the hospital serves as the council hospital at the primary health facility level in Bunda town council.
