It will be useful to group SELV’s “facility types” into what may be informally called “facility categories.” Each facility-category is presented below followed by its associated facility-types.

Health Facility
Centro de Saude Rural Tipo 1
Centro de Saude Rural Tipo 2
Centro de Saude Urbano Tipo A
Centro de Saude Urbano Tipo B
Centro de Saude Urbano Tipo C

Posto de Saude

Hospital Central
Hospital Distrital
Hospital Especializado
Hospital Geral
Hospital Militar
Hospital Provincial
Hospital Rural

District Warehouse
Deposito Distrital de Vacinas
Deposito Distrital de Vacinas - Provincias Nao Prioritaria

Provincial Warehouse
Deposito Provincial de Vacinas

Intermediary Warehouse
Armazem Intermediario

Central Warehouse
Armazem Central de Vacinas


Additionally, SELV currently contains the following two facility-types:

  • “FHIR's facility type”

  • “Warehouse”

These two facility-types are unused (meaning that there are no facilities defined using them) and unassociated with a facility-category. For most purposes, they can be ignored.
