For what? We demand that something must be done soon,\u201d said Misi, pointing in the direction of the ruins.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, the 30 member Chafumbwa MCG, empowered by the Health Systems Strengthening Program (HSSP), is running a makeshift outreach clinic where, with the help of a Health Surveillance Assistant (HSA), are just administering vaccines for children, immunizing them against tuberculosis, polio and measles, among many other illnesses.<\/p>\n<p>According to Misi, nurses and other medical personnel from Nzandu Health Center, which is 20 kilometers away, visit the outreach clinic once in a while to provide other services such as antenatal and postnatal, psychiatric and HIV\/AIDS testing and counselling.<\/p>\n<p>HSSP is a multi-player project, which is funded by GAVI through the Ministry of Health.<\/p>\n<p>The project, being implemented in Ntchisi and eight other districts, seeks to introduce and train MCGs as tools for increasing child immunization coverage and advocates for improved health services provision.<\/p>\n<p>MHEN and NECCOSS roles are demand creation and community mobilization and local implementing agent, respectively, resulting in the capacity building and empowerment of the MCGs in Ntchisi to be able to discharge their duties.<\/p>\n<p>Misi said their group will not relent in its efforts to ensure that Chafumbwa Rural Hospital is fully constructed and become operational.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have petitioned the District Commissioner\u2019s office several times. We will continue doing so. We want authorities to know our plight and consider finishing constructing this facility as a matter of priority,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Misi added that Chafumbwa MCG has already helped built two HSA houses and 16 community toilets in the area, using the group\u2019s own village bank profits.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also lobbied our councillor who helped us with part of the Constituency Development Fund to buy part of the cement and iron sheets. Now we need glass windows and solar power.<\/p>\n<p>The aim is to make our HSAs lives and work comfortable. Otherwise they mostly face housing problems, living in undesirable grass thatched houses,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, MHEN Executive Director, George Jobe, commended Chafumbwa MCG for the work they are doing, noting that MCGs are actually becoming aggressive advocacy tools for improved health services provision.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will join hands with this group in order to amplify their advocacy for completion of Chafumbwa Rural Hospital. We will support them even if it means taking the group members for interface meetings at ministry and district council levels.<\/p>\n<p>We will also take the matter to Ministry of Health. As government is contemplating to construct 900 health facilities across the country, unfinished projects like Chafumbwa Rural Hospital should be indeed prioritized,\u201d said Jobe, a renowned health rights activist.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
