Hospice Africa Uganda demonstrates a culturally appropriate and affordable hospice model for Africa, with a mission to assist other initiatives in Sub Saharan Africa through service, training, research and networking. Most of the care is home-based but there is also out-patient work. The Hospice cares for 1,500 patients from three sites, Kampala (urban), Mbarara (semi rural) and Hoima (rural) with a mixture of clinics and home visits.

Students can experience holistic palliative care. There are also opportunities to attend training programmes and case conferences.
