PARTENAIRE

Holy Family Oriang Health Centre is a non-profit health institution of the Catholic Diocese of Homabay. The project was established in 1994 to provide quality, accessible and affordable healthcare services to the community in the area. The center offers health services like outpatient and inpatient, deliveries, Maternal Child Health care (MCH), comprehensive care for HIV/AIDS patients, community health education and laboratory services. The main goal of the centre is to provide and facilitate the provision of quality, efficient and effective healthcare services to the community. The Centre has opened its doors to all HIV/AIDS patients in the area where they can get access to medical services under a comprehensive care package. The patients receive free testing, counseling and medicine. The staff also goes to the villages to reach to people who are unable to afford to reach the health center for treatment. This is because most people hardly afford to seek for healthcare services mainly due to stigma therefore leading to high death rates.

Localisation

location The project is located in Oriang, Oyugis, Homabay County.
