Health centre

Medical care for ALL!

Most Cameroonians cannot afford an examination at the doctor's or even in hospital. We therefore treat them in our health centre for a very small fee.

We started our first outpatient treatment programme in October 2009. In the meantime, thanks to generous donations of medical equipment - mainly from the Medicor company - we have been able to set up a small infirmary with 1 X-ray machine and 4 beds. It is looked after by 2 nurses and a registered doctor visits regularly.

We renovated and refurbished a vacant building in Bafia ourselves in order to install and commission the first ultrasound machine within a radius of 120 kilometres. A small sensation and the joy among the population was great. Now pregnant women, for example, can also be examined free of charge. The Cameroonian doctors and medical technicians are also very interested and are all willing to contribute or learn about the latest technology free of charge.

Financial resources, medical equipment - such as ultrasound and mammography systems - and local educational work on prevention issues, e.g. breast cancer - these are the things we need most right now!
