Business matter: Health problems in Senegal

Hospices in the zone

In the town of Kedougou it is the referral hospital for the entire region. The present specialties are gynecology. Internal medicine, pediatrics, orthopedics and emergency services, health human resources are very limited and more resources. Can the state afford it or must be private economy who develops it?

There is no oxygen, the analytics are absolutely basic, less than basic medicines, being all so dicey. That is the reason why before any serious health problem it is necessary to send folks to the hospice in Dakar, where most people can’t go thanks to lack of financial resources. Dindefelo Bandafassi are in the Kedougou region, they're found in a rural region with scattered inhabitants who meet in small camps.

Camps in Bandafassi

Can a public budget afford that there are 30 camps in Bandafassi with a total population of 10,200 inhabitants? The quantity of women between 14 and 50 years is 2346, and the youngsters as 0 to 5 years is 1936. In Dindefelo there are twenty five camps with a total population of 8,625 inhabitants.

The number of women 14 to 50 years is more than a thousand and the children/as 0 to 5 years too. In these zones there's a health center in each of them to serve the population of the camps.

In the health centres is a nurse in each, and 2 normal birth attendants to look after the condition of the population. There vaccination program for children which is performed by midwives. Material resources are minimal and medication too. The malaria detection test distributes the Government as well as treatment, but in quantities that do not meet the prerequisites.

Difficulties

The dispersion of the populace, shortage of autos and shortage of business resources of the people implies that folk find it terribly difficult to attend the health center. Medical personnel moves by bike through the area. Here is where private resources can help local public economy.

Environment

When people come here, they will not find a traditional Safari Park. This region of Senegal is poor, with not too much resources and that requires lots of help. But be certain you will find fantastic people with a great heart and NGOs are working.
