GX visited clinics in Arta Region

GX visited 2 community health centres in Arta Region: Centre Médico-hospitalier d'Arta and Point de Santé de Damerjog. The clinics have the capacity to provide basic care, such as emergency, maternal and child health, nutrition and vaccination. Cataract cases are referred to hospitals in Djibouti City but this mountainous region is 2 hours away from the city. GX will collaborate with the clinics to recruit cataract patients at community level for the upcoming cataract blindness elimination project in Djibouti. This visit is vital to gulf a partnership for future patient recruitment in Djibouti.
