GX visited clinics in Dikhil Region

GX visited 2 community health centres in Dikhil Region: CMH Dikhil and PS Galamo. Dikhil Region is a desert region located in south of Djibouti. Population is rural and speak in local dialect. Childhood vaccination, infections and maternity care are provided in the clinics and larger centre also provides radiology and surgical care. However, it lacks fundamental health needs such as medications and testing kits. This visit is vital to gulf a partnership for future patient recruitment into the cataract blindness elimination project in Djibouti.
