Community Health Centres
These health units are staffed by one or more nurses and auxiliary staff. Community Nurse Practitioners (CNP), in the absence of a physician, provide daily clinics for medical treatment, community health programs and 24-hour emergency services. Clients requiring more specialized care are referred to a hospital.

Community Health Centres provide health care activities such as immunization clinics, prenatal classes, postnatal care, and school health clinics. In the rural communities, health centres also provide primary care.
