Over the past five years, CHAM has demonstrated an upward trend in health outcome indicators. CHAM saw a notable 4% increase in outpatient attendance and a 7% rise in hospital admissions, including maternity cases.
CHAM played a crucial role in national maternal health services, contributing to 20% of national deliveries and Caesarian Sections. Additionally, CHAM's impact on childhood vaccinations remained substantial, with 20% of BCG vaccinations and 19% of fully immunized children under one year.
