The Rural Health Unit (RHU) of Medellin serves as the primary health care provider of the municipality, dedicated to delivering accessible, affordable, and quality medical services to the community. It ensures that every resident, especially those in far-flung barangays, has access to essential health services.
Key services offered include maternal and child health care, immunization programs, family planning, communicable and non-communicable disease prevention, laboratory services, and medical consultations. The RHU also spearheads health education and information campaigns to promote healthy living.
With a team of doctors, nurses, midwives, and barangay health workers, the RHU works tirelessly to safeguard public health, prevent the spread of diseases, and provide immediate medical assistance to the people of Medellin.
