Three times a month our clinic staff goes out into three neighboring villages (one village each week) to perform immunizations and administrate the district health services “model village” program.
This program encourages people to improve their health by implementing better sanitation and compound maintenance practices. This last week our staff visited one of the villages to perform immunizations as normal, but also to present gifts to those individuals that had most improved their compounds based on the model village model. This village had planned a celebration; complete with singing, drama, speeches and dancing to commemorate the event and LOTS of fun was had by all!
