Following the completion of the health facility we have begun the commissioning of the Centre.
Commissioning is a complex process.
It involves:
Expanding management skills
Furnishing and equipping the building
Agreeing the operational policy
Developing operational procedures
Recruiting manpower
Establishing information systems
Starting training programmes
Transferring existing clinics to the new facility
Establishing working relationships with other health care facilities
Aspects of commissioning are underway. The building provides accommodation for many aspects of primary health care. The commissioning process will extend over several years as each aspect of the programme is developed and implemented.
