Introduction :
The first lady of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Denise Nyakeru Tshisekedi, recently inspected the renovation works of the Center for Mixed Medicine and Anemia, known as the Mabanga Center, in Kinshasa. This visit is part of the fight against sickle cell anemia, a disease that affects many people in the DRC. Thanks to this work, the Mabanga Center will soon be able to open its doors and offer health services adapted to the needs of patients.
A commitment to health in the DRC:
Denise Nyakeru Tshisekedi, as first lady of the Democratic Republic of Congo, has pledged to work to improve health in the country. It is with this in mind that it launched the rehabilitation and modernization work of the Mabanga Center last February. This center, which is the only public establishment caring for sickle cell patients in the DRC, will soon offer a conducive environment and quality care to patients.
New facilities and expanded services:
After 7 months of work, the Mabanga Center is about to resume its activities. The facilities have been completely renovated and now meet the strictest health standards. Patients will have access to additional services such as ophthalmology and dentistry, allowing their health needs to be met more comprehensively. Thanks to the support of the Denise Nyakeru Tshisekedi Foundation and its partners, sickle cell patients will be able to benefit from adequate care and quality medical monitoring.
Disease awareness and prevention:
The Denise Nyakeru Tshisekedi Foundation is also committed to raising awareness among the population, particularly with regard to the early detection of sickle cell disease. It also supports patient care structures, thus helping to improve access to health care. This action aims to prevent the spread of the disease and reduce its impact on the Congolese population.
Conclusion :
The renovation of the Mabanga Center in Kinshasa is a laudable initiative of the first lady of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Denise Nyakeru Tshisekedi, in her fight against sickle cell anemia and for the improvement of health in the DRC. Thanks to this work, patients will have access to modern facilities and expanded services, thus offering them better care. Awareness raising and disease prevention also remain priorities for the Denise Nyakeru Tshisekedi Foundation, which continues to invest in improving the health of the Congolese population.
