Which facilities handle minor cases like cuts and wounds at the subdistrict level?

• A. Health centers
• B. Health posts
• C. Rural clinics
• D. All of the above

Answer: (D)

Minor injuries like cuts and wounds are managed at the primary care level, and several types of facilities operate at the subdistrict level to handle them. Health posts provide basic first aid and wound care; rural clinics offer outpatient care with more staff and supplies; health centers serve as central primary care hubs that still handle simple injuries in addition to other services. Each of these facility types is equipped to perform basic wound cleaning, dressing, pain relief, and basic preventive steps, and they can refer to higher levels if complications develop. Because all of these facilities are designed to handle routine, non-complex cases at the subdistrict level, the best choice is all of the above.
