According to Wikipedia, Kisiizi hospital is a community hospital in the district of Rukungiri, South Western Uganda. It is located in Rubado sub county and one of the oldest Missionary founded hospitals in Kisiizi.
Heavy floods have submerged the hospital after the heavy rains and downpour on Sunday. The water swept downwards and washed the slopes of Nyarushanje and Nyakishenyi.

There was a lot of distraction worth millions, example a 300 watt generator, that supplied the main lighting, hence the processes of the hospital has been put on hold.This led to an unfortunate event of death of three babies who were in the incubator at the time the generator was disrupted. The floods entered and covered up many of the wards and their water sources have been damaged.
Kisiizi hospital also happens to be Barbie Kyagulanyi’s birth hospital. She posted on facebook
