In a statement, Western Cape Health MEC, Dr Nomafrench
Mbombo says the Western Cape government has re-aligned its community-based
services to deliver quality care to the people of the Western Cape in rural
communities.
She says Western Cape Government Health’s Rural Districts
have shifted their focus of services rendered at community level to align with
the Department of Health wellness initiatives.
She says that Community
care workers, now known as community health workers, were previously only
tasked with supporting the members of the community through regular home
visits.
Their focus was on giving adherence support, health
promotion, prevention and home-based care.
