Thanks Salute e Sviluppo, today, the ‘Beato Luigi Tezza’ health centre in Kakumbo (Côte d’Ivoire) offers the population a complete, adequate and accurate diagnosis through reliable and quality results. Now, many patients can have biochemical examinations here, without having to travel many kilometres to find a well-equipped laboratory that can accommodate them.

Il progetto, realizzato da marzo a ottobre 2023, ha visto l’acquisto dei seguenti apparecchi di laboratorio:
• Un distillatore di acqua
• Un’autoclave (per la sterilizzazione degli strumenti di lavoro)
• Un bagno maria
• Un termostato (per l’incubazione di tanti reazioni in laboratorio)
• Un lettore di immunologia I CHROMA II

The ‘Blessed Luigi Tezza’ Health Centre in Kakumbo is run by the Institute of the Daughters of St. Camillus, a Catholic religious congregation whose mission is the quality care of the sick, especially the poorest and most abandoned, following the example of St. Camillus De Lellis. This ‘centre’, opened in 2009 by missionary sisters, responds to a pressing health need of the population in the villages of Kokumbo, Niamkey Konankro and other surrounding villages. In this centre, paediatric consultations, consultations for adults, for the elderly, and patients with Buruli Ulcers are treated. There is also a small maternity hospital, a pharmaceutical depot and an analysis laboratory.
