During these two months, Fundación Maritere has been treating 112 low-income patients through its integral approach. We have given in total 89 services, whether they are just medical, or psychologial, or alltogether. Specifically, we have given 47 sessions of physiotherapy, 15 sessions of psicotherapy and 15 sessions for building a nutritional plan. All of our patients are receiving medical follow up and only in october and november, 19 new patients have been incorporated to our free health model. We also gave a workshop on physiotherapy and involved one of our patients in a capacity-building process to start her own business. Many of our patients have reported significant improvement in their daily lives; from gaining movement, to losing weight, to feeling more happy. In october, Fundación Maritere hired its firts medical Director, who is implementing a long-term strategy to help all our patients improve and to grow the number of patients we attend. Also, the Director is comitted to generate impact reports so we can soon know and socialize the impact of the work we have been doing for the past years and mainly since the clinic opened (this year).
