Africa-Press – Lesotho. As one of the many efforts done to improve the health system in the country, Baoki Express Clinic, founded by a 32 year old ‘Mamonica Mokhesi Makhozonke, provides
concierge services to Basotho. The clinic is co-owned by ‘Mamonica Mokhesi and Raphael Tlali who are nurses and directors of this clinic hence the Name Baoki Express Clinic (PTY) LTD.
It is a professional nurses driven company hence the name ‘Baoki’ and are working with other Health Care Professionals that includes Medical Officers and local and international specialists.
The clinic aims to improve health care system in Lesotho as well as raise the status and profile of nursing in Lesotho (World Health Organization Nursing Now campaign and Nightingale
challenge). It focuses on disease prevention, promotion of good health, early diagnosis and treatment, prevention of complications, rehabilitation, and appropriate referrals.
Their focus is not only on physical well- being but also on mental and spiritual well-being. Their mandate amongst others is to provide convenient primary health services in any setting that include homes, workplaces, schools
etc. The Clinic provides wide range of high-quality services that are rendered by reputable Health professionals with vast experience in the medical field and
specialists in different fields of specialization. Our clients are our masters, and we always maintain professional conduct. Our strength is basically to treat
our clients with courtesy, respect, and maintenance of confidentiality. The clinic operates under the motto;“Your Health, Your Life, Our Passion”. Baoki Express Clinic is
therefore the answer to support the already existing health care system by promoting good health thereby limiting the number of people who have health
disorders, early diagnosis and treatment hence limiting complications and supporting clients to recover “rehabilitation”. The Clinic design and implement
tailor made wellness programs for individuals as well as organizations. We are committed to screening our clients for medical disorders and when abnormalities
are identified, they are treated by an appropriate health professional or specialists. We also offer Emergency Care Services and facilitate referrals in
and outside the country. In an Interview with Informative Newspaper Mokhesi pointedout that they face many challenges. Recognition of nurses and their services is the
main challenge where there is lack of understanding on scope of nurses’ practice. “Services like vaccination, baby delivery and the like are done with
the guide of the Ministry of Health (MoH) but the challenge is other medical aid companies require these services to be offered by a Doctor and that is
unfair to the profession,” she said. There is a lot to do to make sure that Basotho understand nursing profession and how the nurse relates to doctors, to show case the good work that is continuously done by the nurses
and to also fight for the nursing profession to get the recognition it deserves, so that they can practice independently like other professionals without
operating behind the scene. In 10 years Mokhesi sees the clinic as the first hospital working with other health professionals, offering outstanding services that focus on the physical being, mental
wellbeing and the spiritual being of clients. “Services should meet the clients’ standard. Infections be found on time for proper treatment to be rendered on time.
It aims to rehabilitate those who have been severely impacted by diseases so as to nurse them back to health. The clinic will follow into Florence Nightingale‘s footsteps whose job has been recognized for decades and also to make
history in nursing,” she said. One of the clinic directors Monica Mokhesi was nominated for the 2021 Wo-men Appreciation awards in November and looking at the amazing benefits, she decided to join Finite
Lifestyle Club. She says she even realized that the club helps clients to get health services at an affordable prices. “It attracts a lot of people because one other health
promotions is to have access to massages to unwind which is also good for the health,” Mokhesi acknowledged. “I recommend Basotho to join Finite Lifestyle Club because it has many benefits that as a nurse, I
recommend those benefits as they are good for their health. Health is very expensive but with Finite Lifestyle Club, one gets health services at affordable prices. Baoki Express Clinic offers 10% discount to Finite Lifestyle Club members. Become a member and enjoy the benefits!
