Grace Family Health Centre
Status
Closed for Restructuring - opening date to be announced
Grace Family Health Centre was the second project funded by Sunrise Centre. The community identified a need for maternal support after several student at Buiga Sunrise School lost their mothers in childbirth. The clinic was built in 2009 with a single ward for expectant mothers and over time expanded and began offering a wider range of services. A bridge was formed into the community that provided access to affordable healthcare, however limited funding and evolving community needs have resulted in a temporary closure as we assess how to restructure with a smaller subset of priority services.
