Majuro Hospital
In 1986 the RMI Government adopted the concept of Primary Health Care declared by the WHO in 1978. The Bureau of Primary Health Care was established to target the strengthening of preventive programs/services at the community level.
Ministry of Health and Human Services (MoHHS)works in conjunction with the Community Health Councils (CHC) in the Outer Islands. The system requires community participation in health care and ensures that the community beyond the urban centers are involved and included in the provision of health care services.
The health care system is comprised of two hospitals, one in Majuro and one in Ebeye and fifty-nine (59) health care centers in the outer atolls and islands. Both hospitals provide primary and secondary care, but limited tertiary care. Patients who need tertiary care are referred to as Honolulu or the Philippines.
Health centers in the outer islands are the focus for preventative, promotive and essential clinical care services. All health care centers are permanently staffed by full-time Health Assistants who provide health services and work with the Community Health Councils to promote and foster the concept of shared responsibility for health.
