Recognising the significant impact our existing clinic has had on the general health of the community, the Vanuatu Ministry of Health and the Provincial Health Management Team upgraded our status to a dispensary level care facility in June 2016.
The current clinic does not meet the required standards to operate as a dispensary, so the committee has been in negotiations with the Ministry of Health, the Vanuatu Government, the Tribal Elders and the community at large to develop a new clinic on the adjoining site.
The new facility will include adjacent staff and volunteer quarters for the people working in the clinic, is designed to meet the required standards to operate as a Dispensary and to withstand the physical and environmental factors of its location.
