Lassin Baptist Health Centre started as a Government Community Health Post but in 1992, the community applied for the creation of a CBC Health Services health unit in the village. Following the application, a team was sent from Banso Baptist Hospital (BBH), to carry out feasibility studies which culminated in the conversion of the government health post into a CBC Health Services run unit in 1999. This move brought in new services and qualified staff. Today, the Lassin Baptist Health Center can boast of quality services rendered in and out of the community. Lassin Baptist Health has well trained staff including a screener and sees an average of 500 clients every month. Banso Baptist Hospital (BBH) undertakes a doctor’s support visit to the health centre every other month. The Health Center offers inpatient and outpatient services to the community.
