"content": "hospital within the constituency. I would wish to say that we have only one health facility that gets drugs to supply to about 12 dispensaries. Even other diseases become a problem to manage because people have to travel long distances to access the health facility and medicine or treatment for that matter in various facilities within the constituency. I would also wish to tell the Government that the health facilities that we have at the constituency level should be upgraded to probably level four. This is because when you have level three health facility the kind of medicine that it receives is different. You will realize that they do not get medicine for diabetes, psychiatric problems, cancer and renal problems. When the facility is upgraded to level four, patients are able to get medicine for chronic diseases. So, as we urge the Government to upgrade one hospital in every county and also provide equipment, I would also urge the Government to train enough personnel and make sure that our facilities have enough drugs for patients. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I support the Motion and urge the Government to consider upgrading other facilities in order for our people to access doctors and medicine closer to where they live."
