The health clinic in Chopelwor improves access to basic medical care for the local population. Outpatient treatment, laboratory tests and the dispensing of medicines enable early diagnosis and treatment of common illnesses.
Goal: Sustainable financing through moderate patient fees while ensuring access for vulnerable groups.
Impact: Improving healthcare, early treatment of illnesses, and strengthening basic medical care in the region.
The clinic’s laboratory enables sound medical diagnostics directly on site.
Thanks to modern equipment, including a microscope and an ultrasound machine, examinations can be carried out that are otherwise scarcely available in the region.
The clinic is currently the only facility with this equipment within a radius of around 20 kilometres. This eliminates long journeys for patients, diagnoses can be made more quickly, and treatment can be initiated more specifically.
A key part of the clinic’s work is regular engagement with the surrounding communities.
The clinic team visits villages in the region to bring medical services closer to people.
These outreach visits enable basic examinations, health education and early detection of illnesses. At the same time, direct contact strengthens the population’s trust in medical care and promotes cooperation between the clinic and the community.
This proximity makes it possible to address local needs in a targeted way and sustainably improve healthcare.
