Kaduna gov unveils five mobile clinics, women, children shelter

“To this end, we undertook an innovative approach to better our state’s healthcare system. Among the initiatives we took, we have procured state-of-the-art mobile diagnostic units that will facilitate the provision of quality diagnostics services to our far-to-reach, hard-to-reach and other underserved communities.

“These mobile units will offer a range of services, including maternal, newborn and child health interventions, radiology services and all laboratory diagnoses of ailments such as malaria, HIV, hepatitis B and C, tuberculosis and many more. “They will also serve as vital tools for ongoing disease surveillance initiatives while strengthening basic clinical services; referrals and linkages. They will equally provide a platform for regular advocacy, social and community mobilization activities and other campaigns.”

Meanwhile, the governor while commissioning the Women and Children Shelter, frowned at the magnitude of abuses that women and children were subjected to in the society. However, the governor said the facility being commissioned was initiated by the state government to provide support and assistance to women and children who were affected by violence in private, and public spaces, the family as well as community and workplaces.All rights reserved.
