HEALTH CARE FACILITIES
The following list is provided as a service to U.S. citizens. The U.S. Embassy cannot endorse or recommend any particular facility.
All local physicians are required to work at Mauritania, government-sponsored, hospitals during the morning hours and are then permitted to work at a clinic of their choosing during the evening. Clinique Ibn Sina, Chiva, and Kissi are the three exceptions to this rule and provide limited 24 hour emergency room services in Nouakchott. These services are not comparable to U.S. emergency rooms. The rest of the clinics are staffed after 5 p.m.
