Nakekela is a clinic for HIV/AIDS patients in KwaMhlanga, South Africa, an area where the HIV/AIDS infection rate is estimated to be between 50-80% of the population, and there are more funeral parlors than any other type of commercial business. There are 20 beds in the clinic and a staff of nurses and doctors. Staff members visit and assess not only potential patients but also follow up with those who have already been discharged. The purpose of the clinic is to treat HIV/AIDS patients and to alleviate the horrible symptoms that accompany the disease, while bringing the Word of God to the afflicted. A key element of Nakekela’s ministry is home based care. There are currently eight home based care workers (two teams of four) who visit patients in their home providing basic medical care, connecting them to social services, and spending time doing devotions with them. The home based care team also facilitates training programs for the community, in churches and in the public schools, to raise awareness and encourage prevention of the HIV/AIDS virus.
