Quality healthcare is dependent upon the structure of healthcare and/or healthcare facilities in a country. In Uganda, the healthcare system has had drastic changes over the last 50 years. Medical students, interns, and medical officers play an invaluable role in the function of hospitals and the overall quality of the healthcare system of Uganda, particularly in government facilities. Demands for better working conditions and payment of arrears have forced the graduate medical students and upcoming medical interns to strike, causing disruption in the fulfillment of basic health services. In order to prioritize the care of patients in the country, there should be fair treatment of the medical workers to boost and maintain morale and ultimately lead to continued quality patient care.
