UNFPA Donates Mobile Clinic To Ministry Of Health To Strengthen Community Healthcare Access In T&T

The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) has donated a fully equipped Mobile Health Clinic to the Ministry of Health, strengthening efforts to bring essential healthcare services closer to underserved and hard-to-reach communities across Trinidad and Tobago.

The donation forms part of a partnership involving UNFPA, the Government of Canada (Global Affairs Canada), the Ministry of Health and the Family Planning Association of Trinidad and Tobago (FPATT). The mobile clinic will be operated by FPATT under the oversight of the Ministry of Health to support community-based healthcare and outreach services.

The mobile clinic is designed to improve access to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services, primary healthcare screening, diagnostic services and emergency care, particularly in communities where geographical barriers may limit access to healthcare facilities.
