Refugee Healthcare Providers
Healthcare Without Boundaries.
Compassion without limits. RHCP works across Uganda’s refugee settlements and the communities that host them, so every refugee can reach quality care — wherever they are.
About
Care That Travels to the People Who Need It
RHCP is a registered Ugandan non-profit working in refugee settlements and the host communities around them — running mobile clinics, training Ugandan health workers, and connecting patients to the specialised care a settlement cannot provide.
From primary care and mental health support to reproductive health and emergency response, our programmes are built with communities rather than delivered to them.
Care that lasts is care local people own, so every clinic we run doubles as a training ground for the health workers who will still be there long after a response ends.

Grassroots Engagement
We begin with the leaders, midwives and volunteers a settlement already trusts, so services are designed around what people actually need.
- Work through trusted local leaders
- Co-design services with the community
- Plan around real, stated needs
Step 2
Mobile Outreach
Mobile clinics carry consultations, medicines, screening and counselling into settlements and host villages that sit hours from the nearest facility.
- Consultations and medicines on site
- Screening and counselling in villages
- Care for families far from a facility
Step 3
Capacity Building
Community health workers, women leaders and young people are trained to run screening, referrals and health education themselves.
- Train community health workers
- Develop women and youth leaders
- Hand skills to the community
Step 4
Referral & Follow-up
Partnerships with hospitals carry patients through specialised treatment, and our teams follow up so recovery does not stop at the clinic door.
- Referrals through partner hospitals
- Support through specialised care
- Follow-up after treatment
