In addition to routine care, the Matola hospital will place an emphasis on treating communicable diseases that are prevalent in the area such as HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis. In addition to serving local residents, the facility will act as a referral hospital for some 800,000 people from neighboring districts.
