Patients who need X- ray services at Masaka Regional Referral Hospital are currently requested to go elsewhere following the breakdown of the newly acquired machine.
The X- ray machine, which was acquired and installed in February last year, broke down two months ago and has never been repaired.
Currently, patients and their caregivers have to seek for services from private facilities where they pay between Shs30,000 and Shs50,000.
The suspension of X-ray services followed an incident of an electrical short circuit in which several machines at the hospital got damaged .
According to Mr Charles Tumushime, the Masaka Regional Referral Hospital administrator, they are faced with the challenge of electrical short circuits, which keeps damaging hospital machines.
