Today in Nakitun: Bringing Healthcare Closer to the Community
Today, our Mobile Medical Unit (MMU) reached the community in Nakitun, bringing essential healthcare and health education closer to families who face barriers to accessing routine services.
📊 Today’s reach:
- 👨⚕️ 42 patients received medical consultations and care.
- 💉 15 children were vaccinated.
- 👶 18 lactating children were screened using MUAC for acute malnutrition.
- 🟠 1 child was identified with Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM).
- 🔴 1 child was identified with Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) and requires appropriate follow-up and management.
- 🤰 4 ANC follow-up cases were attended to.
- 👩🍼 2 expecting mothers and 2 lactating mothers were screened, with one lactating mother identified with MAM.
- ✝️ 91 people were reached with the Gospel, reminding the community that caring for the whole person includes both physical and spiritual wellbeing.
Behind every number is a mother, a child, a family—and a story.
Through the MMU, Community Preventive Medical Care (CPMC) continues to work toward a model of healthcare that combines prevention, early detection, treatment, health education, nutrition, maternal and child health, vaccination, and compassionate community engagement.
We are grateful to our dedicated health team, community health workers, volunteers, and partners who continue to make this work possible.
Healthcare should not wait for people to reach a facility. Sometimes, healthcare must go where the people are.
