The Cancer Association of Namibia has started expanding its care services by fixing up buildings in the Erongo area. It plans to build a special care center in Swakopmund. Rolf Hansen, who runs the Cancer Association, says they will name this place after Kurt Johannesson because he worked hard helping cancer patients for many years. Kurt was the boss of the Cancer Association longer than anyone else and did lots of good work.
The new building sits at the Cancer Association's Erongo Center and will team up with another care home already working in Windhoek called House Zietsman. Together, they will give all kinds of help to sick people. This includes making patients stronger, giving them a place to rest, looking after very weak patients, and caring for those near the end of life. The Cancer Association moved their Erongo offices to the middle part of their property last November when they finished the first big changes to the buildings.
Workers are busy changing the old offices and apartments to make more space for patients. The Cancer Association thinks people can start using these new care rooms around July or August this year. Hansen says they want to make sure all cancer patients across Namibia can find good care close to where they live. Right makes everyone happy when they can stay near family during hard times.
