Several Health Centres across Jamaica remain closed after hurricane Melissa but authorities say recovery efforts are underway and services are gradually resuming.
Chief Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Jacquiline Bisasor-Mckenzie, provided an update on the status of facilities in the hardest hit parishes at a press conference yesterday.
She reported that most Health Centres in St. Elizabeth and Westmoreland are opened.
In St. James, Dr. Bisasor-Mckenzie said, nine centres remain out of service, with at least three expected to resume full or partial services by the end of the week.
In Trelawny, she said all Health Centres are back to their routine schedules.
