Care in the Community
Strong links have been formed over the years between St John Zambia and the Ministry of Health’s Lusaka District Health Management Team. Activities undertaken by St John volunteers are integrated into governmental community health programmes to the overall benefit of the population
.
A range of services are provided to mothers with young children including health education, growth monitoring and community sensitisation and awareness at times of epidemics.
St John Zambia run regular 'Cholera Awarenes Campaigns' and 'Keep Lusaka Clean' programmes which aim to education people on the need for hygiene in order to prevent cholera outbreaks.
