CHALLENGE :
Health care facilities are very important in every region. They must be strategically located so that they are easily accessible to the surrounding community. However, in some areas health care facilities are still difficult to access. Whether it’s because the road is far away and takes a very long time to access health facilities or because the road terrain is damaged or difficult to pass vehicles so that people have to walk to access health facilities. Not a few also end up doing their own treatment at home either with traditional medicine.
