We exist to end spiritual, relational, and economic poverty — one community at a time — by investing in holistic development in rural, underserved communities across Uganda. Our mission is rooted in personal and communal transformation that reflects the love and truth of Christ. Position Summary As the Sonographer at AsOne Ministries, you will be responsible for performing diagnostic ultrasound scans that support accurate diagnosis and treatment, particularly in maternal and general health care, while delivering warm, Christ-centered customer care to every patient. Given the deeply sensitive nature of ultrasound findings — including pregnancy status, fetal abnormalities, pregnancy loss, and other reproductive or general health conditions — you are expected to handle all patient information, images, and results with the highest level of confidentiality, discretion, and professional integrity at all times, in line with the professional code of conduct for radiography/sonography practitioners. Key Responsibilities Clinical & Technical Responsibilities - Perform diagnostic ultrasound scans, including obstetric, gynecological, abdominal, and general soft-tissue scans, as requested by the Clinical Officer or referring clinician.
- Position patients correctly and operate ultrasound equipment safely and skillfully to obtain clear, diagnostic-quality images.
- Accurately interpret and document sonographic findings, preparing clear reports for the referring clinician.
- Identify and promptly flag urgent or abnormal findings (e.g., ectopic pregnancy, fetal distress, suspected malignancy) to the Clinical Officer for immediate action.
- Conduct antenatal ultrasound scans to assess gestational age, fetal growth, position, and wellbeing in coordination with the maternal health team.
- Maintain and calibrate ultrasound equipment, ensuring it is clean, functional, and safely stored, and reporting any technical faults promptly.
- Ensure correct infection prevention and control practices, including cleaning of probes and equipment between patients.
- Refer patients requiring specialized imaging or further investigation to appropriate higher-level facilities.
- Provide holistic care that integrates physical, emotional, and spiritual support, including prayer with patients where appropriate and welcomed — particularly in sensitive situations such as pregnancy loss or difficult diagnoses.
Administrative Responsibilities - Maintain accurate, complete, and secure records of all scans performed, including patient details, indications, and findings.
- Complete and submit daily, weekly, and monthly imaging statistics and reports to the Clinic Manager or relevant health authorities as required.
- Monitor and manage stock levels of ultrasound gel, printing paper, and other imaging consumables, participating in ordering and inventory checks.
- Ensure proper storage, backup, and controlled access of ultrasound images and reports, whether in physical or electronic form.
- Support the scheduling and coordination of ultrasound appointments, prioritizing urgent or high-risk referrals appropriately.
- Ensure compliance with clinic policies, national health regulations, licensing requirements, and data protection standards.
- Assist in the preparation for and follow-up on inspections, audits, and visits by health authorities or partners.
Confidentiality & Data Protection - Treat every scan result, image, and clinical finding as strictly confidential, sharing information only with the patient, authorized clinical staff, or as required by law.
- Communicate sensitive or difficult findings — such as pregnancy complications, fetal abnormalities, pregnancy loss, or suspected malignancy — with utmost discretion, compassion, and in coordination with the Clinical Officer, never disclosing results to third parties without patient consent.
- Never discuss a patient's scan findings, pregnancy status, or health condition with family members, friends, or community members without explicit patient authorization, recognizing the potential for serious social, marital, or safety consequences from unauthorized disclosure.
- Ensure ultrasound images, reports, and patient data are stored securely, with access restricted to authorized personnel only, whether in physical files or electronic systems.
- Conduct scans and deliver findings in a private setting that protects the patient's dignity and confidentiality at all times.
- Immediately report any accidental disclosure, breach of confidentiality, or loss of patient data to the Clinic Manager.
- Uphold patient confidentiality even outside of working hours and after the end of employment, in line with professional ethics and the clinic's data protection policy.
Customer Care & Patient Experience - Welcome and attend to every patient with warmth, respect, dignity, and patience, regardless of background or circumstance.
- Communicate clearly and compassionately with patients before, during, and after scans, explaining procedures in a way that reduces anxiety and builds trust.
- Maintain a calm, reassuring, and professional demeanor, especially when patients are anxious, in pain, or awaiting difficult news.
- Deliver sensitive information with care and empathy, ensuring patients are not left alone or confused after receiving difficult findings, and connecting them promptly with the Clinical Officer for follow-up counseling and support.
- Manage scheduling and waiting times fairly and efficiently, minimizing delays and patient frustration.
- Handle patient concerns, complaints, or feedback promptly, empathetically, and professionally, escalating where necessary.
- Follow up appropriately with patients and the clinical team after complex or urgent findings to ensure continuity of care.
- Model Christ-like compassion and integrity in every patient interaction, reinforcing AsOne's holistic, people-first approach to care.
Collaborative & Team Duties - Work closely with the Clinical Officer, midwives, nurses, and laboratory staff to ensure imaging findings are integrated into timely and appropriate patient care.
- Participate in clinical team meetings, case reviews, and quality improvement discussions.
- Mentor and support junior staff or trainees in basic ultrasound principles where appropriate.
- Engage with referral facilities and partner organizations to strengthen imaging and diagnostic referral pathways.
- Participate in staff devotions, fellowships, and outreach initiatives as part of the AsOne community.
Professional Development - Reflect on sonography practice and pursue continuous personal and professional growth.
- Attend continuing professional development (CPD) sessions and maintain up-to-date licensing and certification.
- Stay current with sonography best practices, safety standards, and confidentiality requirements relevant to the community served.
Other Duties - Perform additional duties as assigned by the Clinic Manager or administration as needs arise.

- Experience: Minimum of 2 years of sonography experience, preferably including obstetric and general abdominal ultrasound, in a primary care, rural, or community health setting.
