In Uganda we have a good number of NGOs offering rehabilitation and AT services and these include; AVIS, Humanity and inclusion, Miracle feet, Momentum wheels for humanity, Re-LAB HS, Comprehensive Rehabilitation Services for People with Disability in Uganda, Katalemwa Cheshire Home for Rehabilitation Services
Swiss Limb and Swiss Ability, International Committee of the Red Cross, Motivation Africa and many more.
Uganda is using the WHO guide to action plan that is why the National strategic plan for rehabilitation and ATs is in its final stage of ministry of health approval.
Access to rehabilitation services is still low and a problem in government facilities due to lack of direct budget for buying materials and machines while those living in areas where the rehabilitation NGOs operate have easy access to free rehabilitation and AT services.
