Community Health Volunteers Training at Tombe Tea Factory

With the health component being one of our key pillars, the well-being and health of the small-scale tea farmers is important.One of the interventions that we have put in place is access to basic health care which is achieved through free medical camps in tea growing communities.
The pre-requisite of the 3-day medical camp at Tombe Tea Factory catchment, is training of 10 Community Health Volunteers (CHVs) who will today complete a 2-day training to aid in health system strengthening in the medical camp and in the community.
The main objective of the training is to equip the volunteers with knowledge in Non Communicable Diseases (NCDs) like diabetes, hypertension and cervical cancer as well as effective tools to use in mobilizing the community to attend the medical camp and gain access to free medical services which will run as from tomorrow, 15th December to 17th December 2021 at Tombe Health Centre.
