Tutume Primary Hospital (Public)

Tutume Primary Hospital is a government-operated healthcare facility located in Tutume, Botswana, within the Central District. As a primary hospital, it offers a range of medical services, including outpatient care, emergency and urgent care, surgery, intensive care, pharmacy, laboratory services, X-ray diagnostics, dental care, eye care, and orthopedic services.

The hospital operates 24 hours a day, providing continuous medical care to the community. Consultation fees are generally 5 Pula for locals, with exemptions for children under five years of age and elders above 65 years.

Recent developments include the procurement of an ultrasound machine, delivered on August 9, 2024, to enhance diagnostic capabilities and reduce patient referrals to larger facilities like Nyangabgwe Referral Hospital.

Additionally, plans are underway for constructing a new hospital in Tutume, with an estimated budget of P850 million. The project includes building 65 staff houses and is scheduled to commence in the next financial year, pending approval from the Ministry of Finance.
