The new facility, which is being commissioned by the Ministry of Health, is part of a wider national programme aimed at expanding access to quality healthcare and upgrading community clinics across Antigua and Barbuda.
Officials say the clinic will be equipped to deliver enhanced medical services, reducing the need for residents to travel far for essential care.

This is great news for St. Paul’s residents much-needed healthcare access is coming soon!
Healthcare is essential. We need better Healthcare all around..SLMBC especially. The place is falling apart.essential medicationz not available
This is great news;however, there’s more to health care than a fabulous building. Things like well stocked medications and supplies and workers who are respectful of their patients and are truly caring for certain. Let’s not pour the same old rancid attitudes and situations into these refurbished buildings.
It’s about time more clinics are modernized. The drive into town for basic care has always been a hassle.
Long overdue, but better late than never. This will help a lot of elderly folks who struggle with transportation.
I am happy for the people of that community cause having to travel out of your community to seek health care services can be taking especially on the elderly
Every commnity needs a health clinic. THis is great news for St Paul
