Chicuque Rural Hospital

Chicuque Rural Hospital

Chicuque Rural Hospital is a hospital in Chicuque, Mozambique. Containing two hundred beds, the hospital was founded in 1913 by United Methodist Church missionary Charles John Stauffacher. It services approximately 500,000 local residents. The hospital was nationalized in 1975 at the time of Mozambique's independence from the Portuguese Empire and incorporated into the country's Ministry of Health. However, the Methodist Church was approached in 1986 to operate the hospital in partnership with the government.[1]
