HUMAN ACCESS provided health support to 157 refugees who voluntarily returned from Yemen to their country Somalia while they were in Mualla Port in Aden Governorate preparing for the return trip by boat to the Somali port of Berbera.
This initiative is part of the integrated project and within the supported voluntary return program, funded by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).
The health support involved conducting the necessary medical checkups for the voluntarily returning refugees to assess their health status and their ability to bear the burdens of traveling by sea for long hours.
Furthermore, the refugees were given the necessary medications in quantities sufficient for a month, especially for those suffering from chronic diseases or mental illnesses, based on prescriptions approved by specialized doctors, as well as some important health instructions to ensure that they arrive well and healthy.
