 CLINICS

Overview

 The Nazarene Community Health Clinics started

in1943 at Mliba Nazarene Clinic. This service cameas an emergency service to rescue the lives in Mliba

due to the malaria epidemic of that time. Community

members were actively involved in the construction

of the clinic, using stones available in the area.

 Today, Swazilland Nazarene Community Clinics has

eighteen (18) clinics operating in the four regions of

the country and serves an aggregate population of

300,000 within the catchment areas. There are five

Clinics in the Manzini region; Mliba, Mafutseni,

Bhekinkhosi, Bulunga and Ngculwini. Five in the

Lubombo region; Shewula, Siteki, Manyeveni,

Sigcaweni and Sitsatsaweni. Six in the Hhohho

region; Pigg’s Peak, Mshingishingini, Ndzingeni,

Malandzela, Bhalekane and Ndvwabangeni; and one

in the Shiselweni region; Phunga and Mgazini.

 The clinics were administered under the Raleigh Fitkin

Memorial Hospital until 1994, after which time they

 became an institution under the Swaziland Nazarene

Health Institutions. By 1994 there were 13 clinics

operating, and since then four additional clinics have

 been built. Each is headed by a state registered nurse.
