Access to health services A serious problem
It is a matter of those who are excluded from well-being: people who live in poor settlements in remote places or in major cities, but who cannot afford to see the doctor and who belong to societies in which medical services, for different reasons, are not universal and/or public.
How is it possible to extend healthcare coverage to them? This is what international bodies, governments of all levels and social assistance organizations are concerned about.
Part of the solution: Mobile Health Units
We know that by themselves, they are not the solution for all health problems. They are just an element in a strategic chain that includes hospitals, clinics, physicians and health authorities or programmes, such as diagnosis campaigns, mass vaccinations, treatment of disasters etc.
Nevertheless, they might play a highly important role. So their characteristics should be appropriate to the social purpose they are expected to serve.
Our units are manufactured on the basis of a precise understanding of this purpose and the geographic, social and institutional environment in which they might operate:
- To meet specific needs of the social health strategy according to which they should operate.
- To have a long life. They are made of hit-proof and scratch-proof materials, and they can operate on bad roads.
- To contribute to your project sustainability by using high quality, but common and available worldwide materials and equipments, so that they may be repaired and maintained at a low cost in any country.
And all this for a fraction of the price offered by assembly plants in developed countries.
