A refreshed space for better care! 🏥
The Craighead Health Centre in Manchester was reopened on Thursday, July 9, 2026, following J$45.6 million in renovations under the Operation REFRESH programme, an initiative of the Ministry of Health and Wellness, funded by the National Health Fund .
From a new concrete roofing, windows and doors, to perimeter fencing and parking; the upgraded facility is another major step in improving healthcare at the community level.
The community will benefit from a safer, more comfortable and energy-efficient environment, while strengthening access to quality primary healthcare services.
The event also included a Community Conversation, giving residents an opportunity to engage on healthcare services and developments affecting the area.
