Project :
ESTABLISHMENT OF ANTI-RETROVIRAL TREATMENT CLINIC RETREAT
CAPE TOWN -WESTERN CAPE-R 250 000
Iqraa Trust has made the
establishment of an Anti-Retroviral Clinic at the Retreat Community Hospital in
Cape Town possible. The Clinic was handed over to the Minister of Health in the
Western Cape in June 2008.
Working with the S A Medical
Foundation, Iqraa Trust provided R 250 000 in funding for the provision of a
facility to house an Anti Retro Viral Treatment Clinic at the Retreat Community
Hospital in Cape Town.
Iqraa Trust was
responding to a very urgent need for separate facilities for patients seeking
counselling, advice and treatment for HIV-related ailments. Previously patients
had to wait in long queues with other patients in very uncomfortable and poorly
ventilated conditions therefore exposing them to the risk of contracting
serious diseases such as tuberculosis as a result of cross infection.
