Your current car is unreliable but a new one is not in the budget. Every time your car doesnt run, you cant get to work. If you dont work, you dont get paid. If you dont get paid you cant fix your car or you go into debt in order to do so. What a cycle of desperation.
The same is true with medical facilities and healthcare in Africa. The Asili Hospital in Uganda, West Africa was in a very similar position when Just Like My Child Foundation first became aware of their needs. The hospital had more and more people coming into the facility for assistance when they did not have electricity or running water. They had no doctor, no AIDS treatments, and no Malaria protection. The patients couldnt get well enough to contribute to supporting their families. In addition, the hospital was using their dwindling resources to care for people in a reactive way rather than with preventive measures.
Meanwhile the community as a whole continued to slip because its members werent healthy. As in all situations like this, children are the most affected nothing is more vulnerable than a child living in abject poverty. This is a cycle that creates desperation and like a virus, affects large portions of communities, across multiple generations.
This is the cycle of poverty.
It was a horrible situation all around with no end in sight. That was in 2006. Over the last four years, Just Like My Child has worked together with community leaders and the hospital to dramatically shift the outcomes of this Ugandan community of nearly 600,000 people. The hospital can now provide healthcare and treatment to its communities in a proactive way, while they develop income-generating opportunities.
Now the hospital not only has lights and running water but they have two surgeons providing 20 different types of surgeries in a fully-equipped surgical center. Asili Hopsital can now charge low rates for every service such as a C-section, ultrasound, etc. They are able to provide AIDS treatments so their patients can be strong enough to work and provide for their families. A cafeteria has also been built not only for convenience, but as a revenue source.
Through the revenue they have been generating they were able to hire another doctor so they dont burn out the existing one and so he can spend time getting certified in additional surgical procedures which will lead to more offerings and income. Once the surgeon completes this additional schooling, Asili will become a teaching hospital that benefits from interns who can serve more patients while the hospital receives financial support from the school.
This is a cycle of progress! This is true Deep Development.
