Medical Clinic

On Monday, a team of nurses joined a Ugandan doctor in Kyally (pronounced 'Charlie') for a medical clinic.

This is the same location as the clinic from the medical trip in 2004 (check the archives for pictures).  Since we were first here, a new clinic building has been put up.  It's not completed yet, but when done it will have a ward, an operating room, patient holding rooms, and a reception area.

For this clinic, the team brought donated & purchased medicines and setup a make-shift clinic inside the unfinished building.

   

The Ugandan doctor and the team worked a very long day, treating almost 200 patients before the meds ran out.

 

   

 

While I was there I snapped a few pics of the locals.
