The Ijenda Hospital (French: Hôpital d'Ijenda) is a hospital in Bujumbura Rural Province, Burundi.

Location

The Ijenda Hospital is a faith-based hospital in the Rwibaga Health District. It is to the east of the Rwibaga Hospital, the other hospital in the district.[1] It is an approved district hospital serving a population of 50,855 as of 2014.[2]

Events

The private Ijenda Hospital was created in1974, but its services were expensive for most of the local population.[3]

In December 2013 an ophthalmological center built by the Lions Club Bujumbura Doyen was handed over to the Congregation of the Annunciades Sisters of Ijenda. The Ijenda hospital was a partner in the project due to its experience in health care in the area. The project had been supported by the Annunciades Sisters since 2006 with a building plot and rehabilitation of existing buildings.[4] The eye center is located beside the hospital.[5]
