Age and sex are the most basic characteristic of population. Sex and Age

composition of a population has significant implications for the reproductive

42

potential, human resource, school attendance, family formation, health care and

other service delivery in general.

3.1.1 Age Distribution of the Population Kasese District has a youthful population (population below 19years) of compared

to the National status of 56%. Primary school age population (6- 12years)

constituted 23% compared to 22%, National status. Elderly (60+) comprised 3.2%

of the population compared to National status of 4.6%. This is most likely due to

the reason that the elderly people tend to retire in villages, running away from

high cost of living in town.

planning. The sex ratio (number of males for every 100 females) of Kasese

District is 1 male for 1.1 females in 2009 implying that the majority are females.

Kasese District has high age dependency ratio. The Age dependency ratio is the

ratio of the persons in the dependent ages (population below 15years and those

above 65years) to the economically active population (population aged 15 to

64years).

The table shows a dependency ratio of 0.95 implying that on average, there is one

dependent persons per 0.95 economically active persons. This is well below that

43

district.

Accessibility to Health Services 2016/2017 FY

Health services in the district are delivered at 106 health facilities covering all sub

counties. However 17% (5) sub counties of Bwesumbu, Buhuhira, Bwera,

Nyakatonzi and Isango have centres only at level II. This hinders the delivery of a

full package of MCH and HIV/AIDS services in the District.

Therefore there is need for remodelling these HCIIs in the underserved sub

counties to enable provision of MCH services.

The District also faces challenges of blood shortage and there is no blood bank in

the district that can supply blood for transfusion to the patients in the District

4.4 Maternal mortality Ratio (MMR)

The MMR has reduced to 122 per 1,000 live births (DHIS2 August 20. 2017) from

164 per 100,000 (DHIS 2016). The reduction is attributed to Governments efforts

in recruiting critical skilled staff especially midwives to improve MCH services and

equipping health facilities with equipment and trainings of staff by implementing

partners.

The majority of the maternal deaths occurred in Kagando Hospital accounting

458/100,000 live birth compared to 104/100,000 in Bwera Hospital and

169/100,000 lives in Kilembe Hospital Respectively. And a mong the HCIVs

Rwesande had the highest MMR at 394/100,000 higher than St. Pauls at

234/100,000 live births.

Maternal death review committees were oriented at all HCIVs and Hospitals

leaving behind the volume HCIIIs. And yet some of the mothers are delayed at

these lower level facilities. Delay in seeking care was still perceived as the common

reason. Health system factors especially lack of blood was a major avoidable

factor.

Common factors underlying maternal deaths

Chapter Six:

Works and Technical Services

6.1 Roads by grade, Length, and condition About 97/466 km of the road network is in good condition and will require routine

maintenance, 138/466 km requires periodic maintenance, 146/466 km requires

rehabilitation and 85/466 km require design and reconstruction. So far a total of

over 635 km of community access roads is in existence in the community.

6.2 Water transport

The district has no commercial water transport services. However, due to the

presence of lakes George and Edward, canoes are used especially by fishing

communities to move from landin site to landing site. Additionally, as part of their

tourism promotion activities, the Uganda Wild Life Authority runs boat launch

services for tourists along the Kazinga channel. All the rivers have large stones and

hence rivers are not good for water transport.

6.3 Water development services

The district is endowed with various water sources which cover about 12% of the

total land area. These include Lakes George and Edward, rivers Mubuku, Sebwe,

Nyamwamba, Nyamugasani, Kanyampara, Lhubiriha and Rwimi.

Currently, there are 1,167 protected springs up from 1,136, 183 boreholes and

about 1,450 GFS taps available for rural water supply with average safe water

coverage estimated at between 80-85%. The average functionality of safe water

sources in the district stands at 63% down from 76%.

6.5 Housing

There are 13 blocks used for offices at the headquarters, which need constant

minor repairs. There are also 16 senior staff houses although 4 of them need

major repairs. There are 23 junior staff houses in very bad condition with 50% of

them already condemned. There is a district store, 2 mechanical workshops and a

teacher’s resources centre which are in very bad shape. The district started the

construction of a hotel, bar and restaurant at Bwenda in Katwe Kabatoro TC which

has failed due to financial constraints. The construction of the 2 billion

administration block is yet to take off.

6.6 Mechanical

The district has a fleet of vehicles now numbering up to 15 vehicles at the district

headquarters. The district road equipment has recently been recalled pending

major repairs. The majority of the fleet of vehicles are very old and it is largely un

economical to repair them from time to time.

6.7 Physical Planning

The trading centres of Kinyamaseke, Kisinga, Mubuku, Ibanda, Maliba-

Kyanya, Rugendabara and Kitswamba have been upgraded into town

boards.

However, there are many trading centres that are mushrooming and have

been planned yet.
