Repair before replace
At St. Theresa Mission Hospital in Nzara, South Sudan, four oxygen concentrators had stopped working properly. Replacing them would have cost about $4,000. They were repaired for $768 and went straight back to giving patients oxygen.
Across three mission hospitals
- At Mother of Mercy Teaching and Referral Hospital in Gidel, Sudan, an April 2026 visit restored equipment for eye care, the laboratory, operating theatres and oxygen delivery after years of power fluctuations and limited preventive maintenance
- At St. Daniel Comboni Hospital in Wau, better power management protected theatre equipment, and oxygen concentrators and incubators were returned to service
- At St. Theresa in Nzara, servicing extended to the theatre, dental and eye clinics, neonatal care and patient monitoring
Building local capacity
Each visit also trained hospital staff and local technicians in routine maintenance, safe operation and preventing future breakdowns. The goal is that hospitals stop depending on someone flying in to fix things, which is the same goal Ingenzi's tools are built around.
