The population  in this area are underserved because of economic crisis,cause by the Anglophone problem that has been hitting the region since 2017. 

The world pandemic has to an extent   has also contribute to this economic crisis. 

Again most physiotherapy center in this region operate very expensive.

So far,the vision bearer of this solution with support from The Don's Entertainment (TDE) a movie, educative and Entertainment house has purchased a land for 5000$ where  this center can be built.

If this solution is granted ,it will go a long to reduce,high disability rate,pain, stress, wheelchair bound, bedridden ,and massive health challenges like  type 2 diabetes, hypertension, obesity  cause as a result of the Anglophone problem, illness, accident and alot of people depending on Jung food. 

This is because patients needing physiotherapy will be able to pay for their physiotherapy and exercise program fee , hence giving them the capacity to maintain their own health,and also enable them to regain maximum mobility, function and independence following, an illness or accident.

The solution is directed towards the complete wellness and well-being of our potential clients.it addresses a group of people in the North West Region of Cameroon with physiotherapy and exercise program pathologies who cannot pay their bills.

Growth, because the vision bearer of the solution with support from The Don's Entertainment (TDE) which is  a movie, educative,and Entertainment house has purchased a land for 5000$ and is seeking funds to build a facility and  purchase the necessary equipments that can be used in this center.

This solution will significantly address this problem because the trend for the number of people needing physiotherapy and exercise program has been in an increase till date.

This is has a result of  of the Anglophone crisis that has not only cripple the economy  of the country but has left many on wheelchair,cruches, ,many disabled ,work related muscle injuries,poor ergonomics ,accidents , disease conditions and high dependant of so many  people on Jung food.

Also many people are aware of the role of physiotherapy in relieving pain, stress, correcting Deformities , hence increasing the number needing physiotherapy.

Again, many people are also aware of the effect of lack of exercises,which can cause obesity, type 2 diabetes, hypertension,hence many go to the gym to exercise.Most often many of this patients prefer the gym because you don't need to bother about traffic or unpleasant weather when jogging on a treadmill or riding a stationary bike. The risk of injury is also reduce because the gym instructor tell them how to perform their chosen exercises safely and effective.

Creating a center.

This will go along way to  to enable this group of people to regain their maximum mobility, function and independence following an illness or accident .

It will  give them the capacity to maintain their own health .

Also many will be less prone to diseases because they will be physically and mentally fit.

Again, beyond exercises and fitness,this center will create a sense of belonging and thus enable this group of people support some difficult moment . These will reduce, pain , disability, deformities, wheelchair bound, stress,bed ridden,and above all death rates.

-In a year this center received not less than 480 patients .

In the next 5years ,it  is  obvious that this solution will serve not less than 4000 patients.

The irony,is that , at the Martin's Catholic Medical Center many of these patients (65%) don't always complete their physiotherapy and exercise program sessions due to limited finances.

It should be noted that the above statistics,is only for one hospital in the North West Region of Cameroon,  There are  other hospitals in the region that have a physiotherapy center.
