The clinic has also extended its services to other impoverished areas of the country through health camps that cater to the medical needs of the people in the specified areas for a certain period.

ART Clinic

The Chandaria clinic through its partnership with UPHS/USAID (Uganda private Health sector Program) started ART Clinic which as per now comprises of 223 HIV positive Clients in chronic care.

The clinic started an EID clinic (Exposed Infant Diagnosis – These are children born to HIV positive mothers) offering full package which includes medication, nutrition and growth monitoring, screening & treating opportunistic infections etc. We currently have 10 mother- baby pairs in this clinic.

Operated by Uganda Baati Limited, the Chandaria Clinic is a very good avenue for the company to develop a good relationship with the community in which we operate. This avenue has been utilized to its full potential which has been realized through the positive perception held by the attendees of the medical camps held annually by the clinic. The Clinic has also been accredited to the Ministry of Health and able to provide ARVs to staff and the community that need them. This was through the HIV/AIDS Work place policy and program.

We have a structured approach to Education, exhibited by our Mabati Technical Training Institute which offers certified technical programmes to well over 500 Students annually. We are keen to join the global community in moving towards meeting the Millennium Development Goals which mainly speak about reducing extreme poverty. This will definitely be achieved by making investments in education which gives opportunities to future generations.

At UBL, sustainability is not an abstract global issue but a local focus area. Our starting point is to continuously improve and minimise the environmental impact of our own operations, through eco-efficiency in manufacturing. Whether it be reduced Energy or Water consumption or utilising environmentally friendly ‘greener’ fuel sources we run a continuous improvement programme around sustainability and technology development.
