“When I think about everyday heroes, I think about our health workers. Health workers deserve the best. Every health worker deserves a home of their own. We at Stanbic Bank will walk with them in this journey and support their dreams.” – Anne Juuko, Stanbic Bank Uganda Chief Executive.
Ministry of Health has come out to name Ms. Anne Juuko, to be the topmost Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director in Uganda’s Private Sector standing with the healthcare system at the time they needed a helping hand most, consistent, and developed a vision, plan to empower health workers in Uganda. Stanbic Bank Uganda was named the topmost company.
On behalf of the Ministry of Health, Dr. Diana Atwine, Permanent Secretary named Ms. Anne Juuko in an emotional moment at their headquarters in Wandegeya a suburb in Kampala City.
An emotional moment is a collection of avid thoughts and moving experiences that culminate in an instant. When we are surrounded by kindness, empathy, and unconditional service to others, that insight can be overwhelming. Did the PS drop a tear, yes she did when she remembered the most paid CEO spending a day visiting children’s wards and decided to mentor the hospital that produces most children in Uganda and sub-Saharan Africa.
Dr. Diana said Am proud to announce Anne Juuko and Stanbic Bank Uganda for standing with us even in the most difficult situations when our workers needed a push than ridicule.
“It is not because you are a mother but you have a good heart that has been seen through healthcare accessibility, culture of sharing, and new partnerships with our health workers countrywide”, an emotional Dr. Diana Atwine said
And to the MD – Stanbic Bank, Ms. Anne Juuko, thanks for your love & commitment to the health sector; the support to Kawempe Hospital to improve maternal and child health services, support towards COVID response, and now this. May God continue prospering, protecting & blessing you.
Anne Juuko was selected for mentoring the top administrators, mobilizing Mama Kits and foodstuffs that were given to all workers at Kawempe National Referral Hospital.
The donations were given to Kawempe Referral Hospital because they have been grappling with high patient numbers and mortality deaths. Kawempe receives over 4000 pregnant women a month from all parts of the country and delivers an average of 100 babies daily.
“I thank Stanbic Bank for the kind contribution. We are sure that this contribution will provide clean and safe delivery to our mothers at Kawempe Referral Hospital especially at this critical time when the country is battling the pandemic” – Dr. Diana Atwine said
Dr. Diana Atwine, Permanent Secretary designated every Monday of the week to work from Kawempe National Referral Hospital as a way of mentoring its leaders after complaints became many.
She appealed to different Chief Executive Officers to come out and support the hospital which was overwhelmed by mothers who want the services. Anne Juuko has put Uganda’s healthcare on her agenda.
