The ambulances would be handed over to the region by the Minister of Health and Social Services, Dr. Richard Kamwi on 31 July this year at a ceremony organized for that here.

According to an invitation letter circulated to all line ministries in Opuwo and Private Agencies the ceremony will be jointly done with the official ground breaking and handing over of the side for construction of the maternity ward for the Opuwo State District Hospital.

In May this year the community of Opuwo complained to the office of Shapumba after a delay of the hospital to pick up casualties at the accident scene about 17 kilometers south of Opuwo and one person died in the Hospital after there was no ambulance to transfer her to the Oshakati State Hospital.

The Opuwo State District Hospital is having one ambulance and when it is out of the region to take patients to Oshakati or Otjiwarongo then there is no ambulance at the hospital.

In several occasion of emergencies the Opuwo State District hospital are using pick up bakkies to transport patients who are not in critical conditions to Oshakati or from health centers to Opuwo District Hospital.
