Mama Maria Clinics (MMC) provides innovative, sustainable healthcare to underserved African communities. An indigenous, community-centric solution, we are building an entirely new healthcare infrastructure designed to serve the poor of rural Africa. Our clinics offer a comprehensive package of services that include:
Primary care (e.g. malaria, vaccinations, childhood dieases, etc.)Maternal/perinatal servicesHIV/AIDS, TB – prevention, education, and careEmergency transportHealthEducation
Our suite of curative and preventive health services differs from those provided by hospitals or other clinics, approaching the unique health needs of rural communities comprehensively, and offering care to all who stand in need.
MMC focuses on delivering a model that breaks the traditional rural African healthcare mold: one based on dependency, enablement, lack of accountability, and individual investment — and replaces it with integrated systems, accurate need-assessments, improved accountability, enhanced access, and high-quality healthcare for all, regardless of class, tribe, clan, or status.
We work with an array of local and global partners including government health ministries, parastatal organizations, and pharmaceutical and private companies. Our approach blends individual-focused and systems-based care while maximizing localized resources within the community.
Primary Care
We believe in providing primary preventative measures though routine health maintenance in tandem with cure and Primary Care management of disease and illness.
Our Primary Care program focuses on screening for and management of treatable childhood and adult diseases such as malaria, cholera, diarrheal diseases, Schistosomiasis (Bilharzia), and meningitis, as well as treating accidental injury, burns, and more. We also offer a vaccination schedule for both children and adults to eliminate preventable diseases.
We focus on identification of patients with specific disease risk factors and offer early intervention and preventive measures wherever possible. We highly encourage routine health maintenance and health education; our overall goal is to educate our people and partner with them for a healthy life.
“It is impossible to describe the level of suffering that I have witnessed on my travels to the Mama Maria Clinic in Kenya. Such poverty is unheard of in the United States, and to see firsthand what our support provides the local people has been absolutely amazing.” –Bart Haynes
