This year's Theovision medical outreach has come to an end, with a presentation of medicines worth several thousands of cedis to the Jomoro District Health Directorate.

The items constitute part of medicines meant for a CHPS compound for the Nzolenzu community.

Presenting the items at a short ceremony in Half Assini, Rev. Eric Wussah, leader of the Theovision Medical Outreach Team, said the actual commissioning of the CHPS compound has been delayed a couple of months to allow the Nzolenzu community complete the infrastructure necessary for sustaining the project.

He hoped the commissioning will be done in October this year, as soon as the community completes the facility for the CHPS compound.

Receiving the items on behalf of the Nzolenzu community, the Municipal Health Director of the Jomoro District, Mr. Gabriel Yengliere, thanked Theovision for the support.

He said providing a CHPS compound for the Nzolenzu community has been on the agenda for a long time, but the lack of funds has made it impossible.

"We are grateful to Theovision for the intervention. We hope this will be the beginning of many more of such life-saving programs," he said.

The week-long medical outreach ended in Jaway over the weekend, after earlier trips to Nzolenzu and Nuba, all in the Jomoro District of the Western Region.

Out of 2,824 people who reported to our facility, 2,431 cases were treated. There were 300 emergency cases, and 479 people were enrolled on the National Health lnsurance Scheme (NHIS).

A total of 1,108 children were treated, and 218 sanitary pads distributed. To the glory of God, 460 souls gave their lives to Christ.

The annual medical outreach is organised by Theovision and its partners to show the love of God to remote communities unable to access quality medical help.

Various ailments, including malaria,  fever, typhoid,  high blood pressure, diabetes, wounds and sores, counselling and prayer among others, were provided to community members.
