NUMBER OF HEALTH CLINICS HELD IN REMOTE OUTREACH VILLAGES NUMBER OF CHILDREN FULLY IMMUNIZED 2015 ACTUAL 2016 GOAL 2015 ACTUAL 7 2016 GOAL 24 3 YR PROJECTION 24 594 500 3 YR PROJECTION 1,000 0 0 10 20 30 500 1,000 1,500 2,000 Our Health Centres provide children with vaccinations against Polio, Diphteria, Pertussis, Tetanus, Tuberculosis and Measles. Each of these 594 children received multiple shots, ensuring that they have full cover against these diseases. Our current strategy is to provide comprehensive support to our central villages in each of our four pillars, so in order to provide outreach villages with health assistance we carry out community health clinics with qualified health personnel. At these clinics we immunize children, deliver basic health care and advice, and also raise awareness about the health facilities in central villages for more serious health problems. NUMBER OF WOMEN PROVIDED WITH ANTENATAL CARE 2015 ACTUAL 1,333 2016 GOAL 2,200 3 YR PROJECTION 2,500 0 500 1,000 1,500 2,000 2,500 This refers to the number of women who received at least one visit from a skilled health personnel and four visits from any provider during their pregnancy. NUMBER OF SUPERVISED BIRTHS 2015 ACTUAL 367 2016 GOAL 512 3 YR PROJECTION 512 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 The number of supervised births refers to those women who received assistance from trained personnel during pregnancy, labour and the postpartum period. When a trained health worker is present at the birth of a child, it significantly decreases complications which can result in death, and also connects new mothers with post-natal services. “THE MANNYA HEALTH CENTRE PROVIDES PEOPLE WITH A PLACE TO COME AND ACCESS CARE WHEN THEY NEED IT. CHILDREN CAN BE IMMUNISED TO PREVENT FUTURE ILLNESS, AND MOTHERS ARE CARED FOR WHICH MEANS THERE ARE MORE HEALTHY BABIES.” NUMBER OF PEOPLE TESTED FOR HIV 2015 ACTUAL 3,840 2016 GOAL 1,600 3 YR PROJECTION 1,600 0 500 1,000 1,500 2,000 2,500 3,000 3,500 4,000 Testing for HIV is a critical step in helping people accept the illness, gain treatment, and prevent the spread further in the community. With the new HIV Health Centre opened in December 2015, we expect to provide HIV services to up to 13% of the total population within our catchment area (which is the estimated proportion living with HIV).
