Kananga Clinic is based in a rural set-up in Kalumbila District, which is within our CSR regional scope. It covers a population of 12,977 people, of which the highest number is women, particularly pregnant women.
With such a large population the clinic has a lot of inconsistency in service provision, including keeping mothers that have just given birth in the clinic for a stipulated number of hours due to lack of space. This has contributed to a drop in maternal health.
GCS took up the challenge to complete a mothers shelter to bridge the gap in maternal health.
