Health Link

Yemoh town lab — Yemoh Town laboratory – now able to analyse blood samples and test for malaria.

Our health link has grown out of a midwifery training programme run by our Health Coordinator, Helena White. This has expanded to improving the health care facilities within Peripheral Health Units. A generous legacy provided funds for the conversion of an old labour room at Yemoh Town Health Clinic to a basic laboratory, enabling tests to start taking place. We have been working with the District Health Management Team to try and establish government support to meet the basic running needs of the lab. There are further propects of providing training by digital link.
