Hospital of HOPE

Today we were able to spend time at the local hospital. Team members were able to follow the physician and Clinical Officers, as well as the pharmacist and nurses. Hannah, Julia, Jenessa, Julie and Jerrica were able to watch a baby being borne. The  staff at the hospital are amazing and all the Nuns have given their lives to help the sick. We all have many stories to tell.

Tonight we went into town and did some shopping at the local market. After dinner we had an "unpacking" party and inventoried all the supplies we are donating to the local hospital including a laparotomy set, 2 pulse oximetries, BP machine, several otoscopes and a LOT of medicines including prenatal vitamins and iron. We separated the items that will be going to the orphanage tomorrow and the items that were donated for the school in the slums.

Tonight we are packing as tomorrow we will start our safari (after visiting the orphanage and HIV support group). We can't wait!
