The accessibility to the poor and needy of basic medical care can be limited for various reasons, not least of which is the overloading of government facilities. Many folk therefore go without medical attention, their illnesses, fears and questions un-addressed. There is a resultant loss of work, hope and health.

In 2006 the Jubilee Health Centre (JHC) was birthed in response to this. Initially the JHC consisted of a clinic offering professional, confidential and affordable primary health care to the needy within its sphere of influence.
In late 2008 two counseling services were added - a pregnancy help centre and a centre for voluntary counseling and testing (VCT) for HIV.

All three services operate together in one place, with a number of volunteers augmenting our existing staff of a doctor, two nursing sisters and a counselor. Each patient/client is cared for by a team, given professional attention and then ministered to in prayer.

There is a good working relationship between JHC and various neighboring government hospitals and clinics (and even the local police station!).

Clinic

The clinic is dispensing practice, and so patients can easily be given medication when needed, and may also be referred within the health centre, or for a specialist consultation or investigations at a local hospital.

It is open to patients 3 days a week, and we see between 40 and 50 consultations in that time.

As word spreads the numbers seeking help are steadily rising. If you know Jesus, and are at all interested in serving alongside us in any way, whether or not you are in a medical or related profession, please contact us on 021 447 3630 or at health@jubilee.org.za. Come and see what God is doing and join in!

The clinic is open for consultations as follows:
Tuesdays 10h00 - 13h00 and 14h00 - 15h30
Wednesdays 10h00 - 13h00
Fridays 10h00 - 13h00 and 14h00 - 15h30
Please phone 021 447 3630 to make an appointment.

Pregnancy Help Centre (PHC)

Finding that you are pregnant when you don't plan to be, can be a terrifying experience. For many women (and teens), abortion seems like the quickest and easiest solution. They feel overwhelmed by the pressures they are facing and desperately need help.

At PHC we offer free counseling to anyone who finds herself with an unplanned pregnancy. Our counseling is non-directive, providing information, support and compassion. It is the woman (or girl) who makes the final decision. Very often this support is sufficient to help someone through a really difficult patch and make good choices for their life.

We also offering counseling after abortion, for those who made that choice and would like someone to talk to. HIV testing and counseling is offered to all our clients too.

Voluntary Counseling and Testing for HIV (VCT)

Believing that we can and need to play a strategic part in the war against HIV/AIDS, Jubilee Community Church is seeking to rise to the challenge by providing practical help and support for those living with HIV in our own church family and beyond.

HIV testing and counseling is available to anyone who would like it, in a compassionate and confidential environment, as part of the Jubilee Health Centre.

Both counseling services, PHC and VCT, are available to clients as follows:
Mondays 10h00 - 15h30
Tuesdays 10h00 - 15h30
Wednesdays 10h00 - 15h30
Fridays 10h00 - 15h30 To book an appointment, please phone 021 447 3630.
