On June 17, 2025, Lethem Regional Hospital embarked on a successful specialist outreach, bringing essential healthcare services directly to the communities of Parabara and Masakenari. The team first visited Parabara before undertaking a three-day boat journey to reach the remote village of Masakenari.

Residents benefited from a wide range of services, including:
Eye Care
Laboratory Testing
Audiology Services
Dental Services
Ultrasound
Obstetrics and Gynecology
Pharmacy Services
General Outpatient Care
This outreach aligns with our mission to provide accessible healthcare to every village across Region 9, bridging the gap between the hinterland and the coast.
Lethem Regional Hospital extends heartfelt thanks to the dedicated team who went above and beyond, and to the residents who came out to access these vital services. Together, we continue to advance health equity throughout the Rupununi.
