Enabling people to receive medical care

This is what we have achieved:

• Identification of a site and its development/fencing
• Establishment of initial buildings (kitchen/storage, latrines, gatekeeper's cottage)
• Establishment of a water supply for the health centre and the population through the construction of wells and a water tower on the grounds
• Treatment days by a mobile team before the health centre opens: diseases are diagnosed, children are vaccinated and the most common treatments are given. Malnourished children receive special nutrition and are referred to hospital as needed.
• Implementation of a nutrition program in accordance with United Nations standards and establishment of a container warehouse to conduct screenings and store food
• Completion of the main central building as the heart of the health centre.

We are working on:

• Further equipment for the main building.
• Other buildings such as staff quarters

This is what the Sign of Hope health centre provides:

• A nutrition program for malnourished children as well as for pregnant and lactating women
• Obstetrics and medical care for pregnant women
• Vaccination program, especially for children
• Inpatient care for serious illness
• Outpatient treatment for illness and injury
• Malaria prevention and treatment
• Corona prevention and vaccination against Covid-19 for patients and residents of the surrounding area
