Non-communicable diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and astma are more and more common in Malawi. Timely treatment is very important to prevent development of severe complications such as strokes and chronic wounds.

Weekly clinics at the hospital and in surrounding village health posts have registered over 2500 patients as of 2019.

A very important part of these clinics is health education and increasing awareness – such as the importance of a healthy diet, physical exercise and the risks of smoking and use of excessive alcohol.
