We are completing and opening the second group of hospital modules of the Hospital and Outpatients Clinic, made possible thanks to support from CEI (Chiesa Episcopale Italiana).
This complex will provide reliable health services to the most underprivileged sector of the Department of Huanuco's population. The Clinic is located in the centre of the suburb of Puelles, in rapid expansion and inhabited mainly by the poor who live in huts with no sanitary services, drainage or other infrastructure.
This clinic is now providing low cost health services (free to the poorest), after the opening of the first 4 modules on January 6, 2015

The second phase is nearing completion for:
- Orthopedics, traumatology and Physiotherapy (rehabilitation and short term beds)
- Polivalent module (odontoiatrics, oculistics, dermatology and cardiology);
- Administration building (pharmacy, administation offices, information point, reception and archive, training rooms for medical and paramedic staff, as well as courses on hygiene and childcare);
- Guest house for patients and family who cannot return home the same day, given the distances travelled.
- Sports Center (football, volleyball and basketball, with showers and changing rooms).
The first 4 modules are now fully functional, offering daily, high quality services for
- Emergency Medicine (A & E, minor surgery, short term beds);
- General Medicine (gastroenterology e pneumology);
- Gynaecology, obstetrics and pediatrics (birthing room, psychology, family clinic, short term beds);

Around 3,000 people, especially the poor, come to the Clinic every month for diagnosis and therapy.
