Somaliland is a self-declared state, not recognized by the nations of the world. Sixty percent of the population are herders or small scale farmers. Gross national product and other data are not available, but it is evident, according to surveys conducted by the United Nations, that most of the population has a low income. The health-care system consists of a public sector, which covers primary care, hospital care, immunizations, and tuberculosis care. The major clinical problems are tuberculosis, malaria and childhood diarrhea. Lack of trained personnel is a major difficulty in the health care system. This paper describes visits to health care facilities in Somaliland, and suggests some improvements for the system.
