treatment for diseases such as leprosy.

The INF RELEASE project is
opening a new clinic in a town south of Pokhara. The new facility, at
Butwal, will include inpatient
facilities and be a new base for the project's mobile leprosy testing services.

 |
Early detection means that leprosy can be cured before the side effects
interfere with the sufferer's ability to live a normal life. |
| |
 |
|
The new clinic will make an enormous difference to detection rates in the area. |
| |
It will reduce the time that sick patients need to walk to
get treatment, from days to hours. It will provide much needed in-patient
facilities and also medical backup to the Nepali paramedics in the area. Funds
are available to build the facility, but money is urgently required to outfit
the clinic with the basic equipment essential to provide this desperately needed
service. |
