Health center of Gbedaconou
2002 we constructed the public primary school of Gbedaconou. Proposed and financed by Mr. Hirl we additionally constructed a health centre on the school premises. When running for the needed papers to open the centre we got caught up in politics. Since then I repeated the demand to open the centre every year. Finally in August 2011 we succeeded. The so desperately needed health station opened its doors for the local population. Thank you very much for the years of patience.

The main work is being accomplished by the young nurse / midwife and her 2 apprentices shown in this report. Once in a while a doctor is visiting the center. In case of emergencies the center is being connected with the community hospital of Ouidah which is at a distance of 20 km. We plan to purchase a car to faciliate the transport to the hospital of Ouidah.
Doctors of the industrialized nations who are willing to volonteer on private funds to work in this center during their holidays are more than welcome.
