The Clinic:

Due to the current costs of and lack of availability of Primary Health Care services and a substantial lack of income in the homes of the poor, basic medical treatment continues to be inaccessible to many. As a result a high percentage of local people are frequently sick and unable to work because basic ailments go untreated, are treated too late and treatments aren’t administered (e.g. innoculations, pap smears, TB tests, worms, head lice, HIV testing etc).

In response to this, the Jubilee Health Centre offers professional, confidential and affordable primary health care to the needy in its sphere of influence through its clinic. As part of our response to the issues within our community, one of them being the HIV/AIDS pandemic, we offer HIV testing and counselling.

The clinic has a Doctor, Caryn Wilson, and two Nurses, Rachel Lilliot and Glynn Massingham. It is open three days a week and sees about 40 patients, where they receive a lengthy consultation and medicines are prescribed if necessary.

This is an area of growing need, and we'd love to have another doctor and/or a pharmacist to volunteer some time on a Tuesday morning. If you would be willing to do this, please phone the church office on 021 447 3630!
