"The hospital should now develop a long-term plan in order to cope with the growing population in the region," said Dr Ndugulile. The Deputy Minister observed that while the Benjamin Mkapa Hospital remains as Zonal Referral Hospital, the Dodoma regional hospital should plan for expansion of its infrastructure to cope with the booming population.

Dr. Carolina Damian, Current medical Officer of the hospital says that they the public health facility was encountering many challenges on everyday basis. The current facility has 420 beds.
