"SALUD MÓVIL" PARA LAS MUJERES DE BAJOS RECURSOS DE LA RIBERA DE CHAPALA

5/29/2015

0 Comments

 
Sylvia Flores, directora del El CENTRO DE DESARROLLO JOCOTEPEC A.C en conjunto con la enfermera titulada Olga Lara y la UNIVERSIDAD AUTÓNOMA están realizando un programa de salud para las mujeres en la que todos los domingos, nueve mujeres de las comunidades de bajos recursos de la Ribera de Chapala, son transportadas en la unidad móvil de CEDEJO al centro de salud en Guadalajara donde les son realizados ultrasonidos y mamografías por el costo de 50 pesos. 

Mujeres cabezas de familia o trabajadoras que logran ganar 40 pesos la hora tendrían que invertir gran parte de su esfuerzo en obtener estos exámenes en Chapala cuyo costo oscila entre 450 y 500 pesos.

Hasta la fecha, mujeres de comunidades como San Juan Cosalá, Tlachichilco y Tepehua han gozado de éste servicio y próximamente se incluirán las comunidades de San Juan Tecomatlán, San Nicolás de Ibarra y Santa Cruz de la Soledad.

​"MOBILE HEALTH" PROJECT FOR LOW-INCOME WOMEN OF Ribera de Chapala

Sylvia Flores, director of the CEDEJO in collaboration with the nurse Olga Lara and the Autonomous University are carrying out a health program for women in which every Sunday nine women in low-income communities in Ribera de Chapala are transported in the mobile health unit to the health center in Guadalajara where they receive ultrasound and mammography for the cost of 50 pesos.

 Women working to support their families and who likely earn an average of 40 pesos an hour would have to invest between 450 and 500 pesos to get these tests done in Chapala.

To date, women from communities like San Juan Cosala, Tlachichilco and Tepehua have enjoyed this service and soon the communities of San Juan Tecomatlán, San Nicolas de Ibarra and Santa Cruz de la Soledad will be included.
