eDumbe CHC is situated at Paulpietersburg in the Zululand Health District. eDumbe is situated between Piet Retief (50km North) and Vryheid (50km South). The population is currently 94 959. It is a referral point for 6 clinics namely: Lunerburg, Ophuzane, Frisgewarcht, Princess Mhlosheni, Hartland and Paulpietersburg clinic. We also have 2 mobile clinics visiting 26 points.

The CHC is located 5km away from Mpumalanga Province border (North) and 30km away from Swaziland border (North-East). None of the above Province and country has fixed Health Centre until 50km and 100km away respectively. Based on this, it is assumed that about one fifth (1/5) of our clients may come from outside our border (cross- border patients). Directions to Edumbe CHC.

The CHC is 2km away from town meaning its closer to the schools and shops. Upon entrance there’s ample parking space for visitors, people with disabilities and ambulances. Our institution is equipped with facilities for disabled people. We have park homes inside for staff accommodation but issuing of a park home depends on availability.

The CHC is yet to be opened officially, however it started functioning on the 1st of December 2004.
