KIU Western Campus – The Nursing Department of Kampala International University Teaching Hospital has won the International Team Award in the 2020 All-Pro Nursing Team Awards, which is given by the American Nurse Journal.

The win was communicated through an e-mail from Julie Cullen, the Managing Editor of the American Nurse Journal, who praised the team for the great work they are doing.

Participating teams were required to write an essay whose theme was “Honouring your Nursing Team” and KIU-TH Nursing Department’s essay was chosen as the best.

The essay described the Nursing team at the hospital, its duties, work plan, implementation of the work plan and how they create an all-inclusive atmosphere for nurses to excel in the execution of their day-to-day duties.

Sr. Elizabeth Kamahoro, the Principal Nursing Officer, compiled the essay and for her efforts, the Nursing Department will receive a one-year free digital subscription to American Nurse Journal, will be featured in the April Issue of the Journal and will also receive a plaque acknowledging their win.
