In the wake of a devastating hurricane, Jamaica’s Minister of Health and Wellness, Dr. Christopher Tufton, has outlined a strategic plan to leverage primary care facilities in supporting the recovery of the public health system. Speaking at a press conference held at the Health Emergency Operations Centre in New Kingston on Saturday, Dr. Tufton emphasized the critical role these facilities will play in alleviating pressure on hospitals across the five hardest-hit parishes: St. Elizabeth, Westmoreland, Hanover, St. James, and Trelawny.
