Tonight I'll just say it with pictures, mostly! I had a good class with the 3rd year students today. I wowed them with NICU equipment, and overwhelmed them with information! I'll be slowing down tomorrow though as I delve into infant cardiac/respiratory assessment.
The students in green are performing an educational play in a nearby community about TB. They did a fantastic job, and the results will be measurable. The townspeople came to listen and stayed for the entire program. They will likely come in now, if they have s/s, to be screened/diagnosed, and receive treatment. The student in black is TB, the dying one didn't take her meds the entire Tx interval, as we often see.
Each yr student wears the same purple uniform.
There is a medical camp at the hospital this week on Fri/Sat where any needed medical care will be provided to the surrounding communities free of charge. Otherwise, there really aren't any patients in the hospital routinely.
The 'communities' are often small groups of people dotted everywhere throughout the mountain-sides.
All for now-enjoy!
I'm trying to check out this post a comment thing which doesn't seem to want to work for anyone. Hmmm!
ReplyDeleteTo any readers wishing to comment-which worked for me, try commenting as "OpenId"-or if it comes up with "Lynn (Google)" use that one. See if it works.
ReplyDeleteThanks-Lynn
I fixed the problem. Anyone should be able to post!
