Miles to Karni

The St. Stella’s Health Center is a dedicated medical facility established and commemorated in 2002, serving the people of Karni in the Lambrusi district of the Upper West Region of Ghana. For over 21 years, the facility has been the sole provider of basic medical services to the people of Karni and its neighboring communities.

However, due to the increase in population over the years and the excellent services provided by the staff, which attract patronage from neighboring communities, the facility is currently in a depleting stage. The facility provides O.P.D services, general medical care and maternal services. Due to the demands and nature of cases handled, the facility now operates a 24-hour service.

The St. Stella’s Health Center contains 5 main rooms used for medical and administrative purposes. Given its usage pressure, the facility’s assessment showed that the structure has defects and isn’t fit for its intended purpose. The space dedicated to O.P.D services, detention and labour related services is insufficient, considering the over fifty patients who visit the facility daily. Also, it was identified that the Center lacks the essential equipment for maternal and general services.
