CONSULTATION ROOM FITTED AT EMBO

New equipment and facilities at the Embo Church mean that the previously monthly Health Authority mobile clinic can come more frequently to this needy community and work out of the church.  MAI was able to cover the costs of this adaptation of a room thanks to a grant from a Foundation in Northern Ireland.

Besides basic adaptation of the room to have a dedicated sink, reception desk and examination couch, the grant has made possible the purchase of refrigeration for vaccines and medical equipment to enable a more regular clinic to be held.

Embo, with a population of more than 60,000 people has no permanent clinic.  It is hoped that this will be a first step in that direction.
