{Patents that access health care at Nyamirama health center, Ngera sector in Nyaruguru district have expressed frustrations over the part time delivery of services since it\u2019s closed during nights and over the weekends and have requested for concerned parties to intervene.}<\/p>\n
This health center receives patients from Gisagara district in Kigembe and Nyanza sectors as well as Mukura sector in Nyanza district.<\/p>\n
They requested ministry of health to recruit an adequate number of nurses so that medical services can be accessed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. \u201cWhen a person falls sick during the night, we have nowhere to go for treatment since nurses do not work night shifts. We have to wait until morning,\u201d said Mukamana, a resident of Nyamirama sector.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe wish at least one or two nurses would take nigh duties at the health center. This can help in case an expecting mother gets labour pains during night or other patients. We\u2019re calling upon authorities to enable us access health care services all the time,\u201d said Uwera.<\/p>\n
The executive secretary of Ngera sector, Simon Ndayiragije says that they have been receiving citizens\u2019 complaints for long. However, he said, operations of health centers, as per guidelines from the Ministry of Health, indicate that such centers work under the similar conditions as Nyamirama. He promised to do more advocacy to the concerned parties.<\/p>\n
\u201cReally, the health center needs to be upgraded since it receives many patients,\u201d he said. Residents also decry poor services at the health center which they say are too slow provided by only two nurses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
