Regional Chairman, Deron Adams, previously told Kaieteur News that the decision was made to have the health centre constructed, following consultation with residents from the community who had voiced their concerns with the RDC.
“The establishment of this health post, when completed, signifies our dedication to ensuring that our residents, particularly in Amerindian communities, have access to a wide range of healthcare services, including preventative care, rehabilitation, and palliative care,” he explained.
Once completed, the Health Department of the RDC will ensure that, through various promotional activities and educational initiatives, they can raise awareness about the importance of preventative measures in reducing the risk of non-communicable diseases.
Kaieteur News understands that Rockstone, a community that is detached from Linden, has an existing health post. However, a small building is being used and, with the growing population there, it was recommended that a new health facility be constructed.
This year, the Regional Administration was allocated some $1.6 billion from the national budget towards its health programme, part of which will be used to construct the health centre.
