Making a Difference by Providing Quality Healthcare Services
The Tsiyon Family Hospital is working towards providing general care for all ages, as well as providing multiple procedures to create a complete health care solution. The Tsyion Hospital will provide procedures including, but not limited to those associated with a primary care medical/dental facility. The Tsiyon Family Hospital philosophy is that optimal health and performance can be attained through the proper balance of exercise, nutrition, and education. Our goal is to educate our patients as well as treat them. Therefore, our services will also provide group classes and teaching sessions for our patients. Subjects will include nutrition, diabetes, hypertension, HIV/AIDS, malaria and much more. The Tsiyon Family Hospital will focus on each individual case. After each procedure and where appropriate, each patient will be offered education in rehabilitation, nutrition, dental care and exercise as it relates to each particular case. Our goal is to create a well-rounded experience for each patient to optimize their health.

Supporting Healthcare in the Uganda Community of Sayyi
Building Up: Partnering In Health and Wholeness, alongside our partners in Uganda, has witnessed a transformation in the lives of over 6,000 people surrounding Sayyi. The new Tsiyon Family Hospital is providing critical care to this rural area of Uganda. Given that most people living in this area have no mode of transportation other than walking or bicycles, having medical and dental services available within a reasonable distance is saving and improving lives.
The hospital still needs the equipment and connections to serve the full needs of the community. You can help make that happen!
