    Making sure our COVID-19 isolation rooms are outfitted properly

    Day 75

    Not Just a Blanket Fix

    Changemakers 365 is back in Nakivale and we are focused on providing things the staff needs for COVID-19 preparation. We’ve been hard at work setting up an isolation space that is comfortable and human worthy. As everyone in the world is experiencing right now, two weeks is quite a long time to be apart for everything and so we want to make these spaces as comfortable as possible.

    We had already added beds to these isolation spaces, so the natural next step was blankets! Our team procured 30 blankets so that during their stay, patients will be comfortable and warm as they recover. This is a great example of how simple changes that add up to a huge difference in the lives of those we serve.

    “CM365 has always been our hope in Nakivale, we are always grateful for their immediate intervention in the community concerns and this has made our working more simplified and effective in all aspects, thank you to changemaker team,” said Rebecca the team lead.

    This change made possible by Tradition Capital Bank.
