Nyaya Health has released its Annual Report for the year 2008.
As part of the local community and governmental efforts to rebuild Nepal’s public-sector health system, Nyaya has built a regional health center that equips and employs local healthcare workers who operate comprehensive primary care services, prenatal and 24-hour maternity care, a regional laboratory and pharmacy, mobile community-based preventive medicine and treatment support teams, and training programs to enhance local capacity in one of the poorest regions of South Asia.
We believe strongly in transparency, so on our wiki website you can find all of our budgets, expenditures, operational protocols, and performance statistics updated continuously using a web-based monitoring system. We hope this “open source” approach will provide an opportunity for critical feedback and contribute to the field of investigation into how to improve public health systems.
Nyaya operates an “open source” organization, so that members of the public can see all of our operational logistics, budgets, and outcomes statistics online at wiki.nyayahealth.org
This year, over 15,000 patients received their care at the center. We have been asked by the local community and government to continue working with them to rebuild the public-sector health system by renovating an abandoned district hospital in a region that faces one of the highest mortality rates in the world. We encourage you to join this project.
Nyaya is a volunteer-run 501c3 organization, so as always 100% of donations go to medical and public health training, construction and delivery programs in Nepal.
