Contemporaneously with the
opening of Desta Mender, plans were announced for the building of five
Outreach Centres (mini-fistula hospitals), strategically placed around
Ethiopia at Bahr Dar, Mekelle, Yirga Alem, Metu and Harrar. Addis
Ababa is too far away for many patients and this strategy would make the
hospital's skills available to many more women. At the time of
writing, Metu and Harrar are in the process of being built.
Bahr Dar,
Mekelle and Yirga Alem are fully operational.
