Pharmacy

Before the first clinic, medications are sorted into individual doses.

Working Together

The pharmacy is lined up along the wall.

Care Packages

Health Care Workers and Medical Mercy team members also gathered hygiene products (such as soap and toothbrushes) for clinic patients.

Working As A Team

Medical Mercy's volunteer nurses and doctors are paired with Health Care Workers to begin the health evaluations.

Question And Answer

This partnership allows the HCWs to brush up on their training and learn from the Medical Mercy team.

First Day of Clinic

Health Care Workers also help the nurses and doctors understand the children and community members.

Waiting Isn't So Bad

Some team members entertain the children as they wait patiently in line.

Your Name Is?

Making the children feel at ease during the clinic is essential. They quickly know that they can trust the adults here. (Candy helps, too!)

How Tall?

Basic information like height and weight are taken first.

Simple Tools

A Health Care Worker measures a child's blood pressure.

Taking Notes

Heartbeat

Even the most basic information can tell you a lot about a child's health.

Are You On Track?

Each child's information is entered into a computer program to measure levels of malnutrition.

Day 1: Children

Children registered in Mission of Mercy's project in Zeway line up to be seen in the clinic.

Day 2: Community

The second day brought more mothers and children, some of them very ill.

Day 2: Community

Older patients were also seen on the second day of the clinic.

The Waiting Room

Serving the community in addition to the children is an important aspect of Medical Mercy's ministry.

Special Service

The Medical Mercy team often tries new things on these trips, including the various types of transportation.

Up For Adventure

Let's Go!
