This area is primarily accessible through the mountains of Turrialba and Grano de Oro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In collaboration with the CCSS, the Swiss Embassy, the local Indigenous Development Association (ADI Cabecar Alto Chirripo), and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ministeriodetrabajocr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Ministerio de Trabajo<\/a>, we are working to enhance the health services in this region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many health centers operated by the CCSS have deteriorated due to termites and weathering or are close to becoming inoperable. A total of 14 structures require renovation or rebuilding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regional CCSS Director, Don Vinicio, has been instrumental in contacting various organizations and advocating for funding from the CCSS Directors. His efforts have resulted in the successful rebuilding of three centers so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CRHF has secured funding and provided designs that have been historically used in other indigenous areas to rebuild the Puesto de Salud Peri\u00f3dica in \u00d1ari. These designs have proven to be durable, with some of our original structures serving communities for over 25 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00d1ari is an indigenous community on the edge of the upper Rio Chirripo in the Cabecar indigenous territory. The terrain is very challenging due to extreme elevation changes and the unpredictable Rio Chirripo during the rainy season. The health services are lacking and sparce on this indigenous territory. Nevertheless, \u00d1ari will be the fourth of the 14 buildings slated for renovation.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.crhf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-15-at-15.09.49.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"565\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crhf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-15-at-15.09.49-1024x565.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2438\" style=\"width:473px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.crhf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-15-at-15.09.49-1024x565.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.crhf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-15-at-15.09.49-300x166.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.crhf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-15-at-15.09.49-768x424.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.crhf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-15-at-15.09.49-672x372.jpeg 672w, https:\/\/www.crhf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-15-at-15.09.49.jpeg 1044w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Currently, the local indigenous community has begun clearing the land and preparing temporary storage for clinic resources and materials.
