Minister of Health Dr Frank Anthony on Friday commissioned a $30 million health centre at Bamia, Soesdyke-Linden High-way.
According to a Department of Public Information (DPI) report, Anthony told the health workers at Bamia that the facility would better provide primary healthcare for the area.
While noting that primary healthcare is the backbone of the healthcare system, he said, “You can do a lot of preventative work at the primary care level, and if we are very effective at the primary care level, it prevents a lot of complications and would prevent a lot of diseases from going upwards in the chain. So, what you do here is extremely important and therefore, we want to work with you, want to facilitate you to ensure that you can do your jobs better.”
