012 Mobile Clinic
The ‘Mobile Clinic’ is for emergency use as well as AIDS treatment and prevention in Africa. It allows the stationary treatment of 6-10 patients and ambulant care of many more. Medical instruments and drugs are safely stored in the central unit, which also contains a small bathroom as well as private sleeping quarters for a crew of 2-4 doctors and nurses. The porch with its large stairs is a social platform for preventive education, theatre plays and film projections. It invites people to understand health and hygiene, rather than hiding the ill away from the healthy people.

تستخدم “العيادات المتنقلة” في حالات الطوارئ، كما تستخدم من أجل الوقاية من مرض الإيدز وعلاجه في قارة أفريقيا. وتقدم هذه العيادات العلاج الثابت لحوالي ستة إلى عشرة مرضى، وتقدم أيضًا رعاية متنقلة لعدد أكبر بكثير من المرضى. ويتم تخزين الأدوات الطبية والأدوية بأمان في الوحدة المركزية والتي تحتوي أيضًا على حمام صغير، بالإضافة إلى أماكن للنوم للطاقم الذي يتكون من طبيبين إلى أربعة أطباء وعدد من الممرضات. وتعمل شرفة العيادة المتنقلة أيضًا بمثابة منبر اجتماعي للثقافة الوقائية، وعروض الأفلام، والمسرحيات. بالإضافة لذلك، فهي تدعو الناس لاستيعاب الصحة والنظافة بدلاً من إخفاء المرض عن الأصحاء.
