Announcement: New Clinic in Santa Maria de Jesus

Clinic Construction

Guatemala SANA is currently constructing a clinic in the town of Santa Maria de Jesus.  This lovely facility focuses on an underserved population, and will host traveling groups, beginning in October of 2010.  

The group is hoping to raise $305,000 to cover all the costs of the construction, labor, permits and licenses, land, furnishing, medical equipment and supplies.  They also would be interested in the donation of quality medical equipment and/or supplies.

This town of 33,000 persons has only ONE small health post, which provides very basic medical care and  is only open Monday thru Friday for a few hours.   Working with Mayor of Santa María de Jesus, Guatemala SANA Foundation is building a 11 Bed primary care facility that will have:

 

  • 11 beds for primary care
  • Pharmacy
  • Water recycling plant
  • Laboratory
  • Testing Room

As you can see from the above photo, the clinic is currently under construction.  To view the architect’s plans for the completed facility, click here.  For more information about the clinic, please click here, and fill out the contact form for Guatemala SANA.
