Bumbuli hospital serves a catchment area of about 125,000 people, most of whom are of the Wasambaa tribe. Within this catchment area there are about eight functioning government or private dispensaries and nearly in every village has shop-selling drugs without prescription.
People residing in this catchment area are generally of low socio-economic status, most of them are subsistent farmers. They mainly grow maize, potatoes, beans and some few other food crops. Tea and tomatoes are major cash crops in the area.
Bumbuli is a fairly remote area, surrounded by hills reaching up to 1500 meters above sea level. It is however having a fairly reliable wireless telephone communication and electricity. It is linked to the road network of about 833 km, out of which 32 km are tarmacs extending from Lushoto to Mombo. The roads are in general passable through out the year but with difficulties in the months of February to May, when there are heavy rains.
