The Clinic:
Due to the lack of proper medical check ups and support from St. Catherine’s public hospital, the local Bedouins face false diagnosis & relapse and are forced to travel to other cities later for treatment as their case deteriorate.
The clinic serves as:
1- Primary medical care services for the locals
2- Main first aid point for locals and travelers
The clinic is currently being built to then be equipped with a proper medical bed and basic needed supplies & devices such as basic dentistry equipment, blood pressure measurement device, needles..etc. These equipment has been determined by a group of medical volunteers and advisors.
