COUNSELLING AND HEALTH EDUCATION
©BAFROW Medical Centre
Health information, education and counselling are central to our clinical service delivery.
At our hospital, all clinicians are committed to providing comprehensive, patient-centred care through effective communication, counselling and shared decision-making during every consultation. We ensure that patients and their families are fully informed, supported and actively involved in agreeing on the next steps in their care and treatment.
This multidisciplinary approach is further strengthened by our dedicated Counsellor/Social Worker and counselling team, who provide ongoing emotional, social, psychological and spiritual support. Through integrated counselling and health education services, we strive to ensure that every patient feels cared for not only medically, but also holistically and compassionately.
Support to Preventing and Managing Malnutrition in pregnant women, breastfeeding women and children
A fundamental aspect of our community work is to provide counselling and education on nutrition to help counter ill-health while clinically managing malnutrition in pregnant and lactating women and children under the age of 5 years.
We offer our patients BAFROW’s High Protein Mix to promote good nutrition and complement patient treatment of malnutrition. The cereal mix–rich in protein, nutrients and vitamins–is proven to be highly effective in managing malnutrition.
