Programs and activities:

Ongoing programs:
AS PART OF OUR CHARITABLE PURPOSES TO PROMOTE PUBLIC HEALTH BY OFFERING SPECIALIZATION TRAINING TO LOCAL HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS, WE SUCCESSFULLY DELIVERED THE STERILE PROCESSING MEDICAL CAPACITY PROGRAMS IN SENEGAL. THIS PROJECT PROVIDED TRAINING AND MENTORSHIP TO STERILE PROCESSING STAFF IN CLINICS AND HOSPITALS. AS A PROJECT TO DEVELOP AND PROMOTE PUBLIC HEATH, WE PROVIDED THE GLOBAL MERCY WITH A NIDEK YC-1800 YAG EYE LASER. THIS SPECIAL LASER TREATMENT IS USED AFTER CATARACT SURGERY AND CAN QUICKLY AND EFFECTIVELY RESTORE VISION. WE HAD 38 VOLUNTEERS DONATE THEIR SKILLS AND TIME TO SUPPORT OUR MISSION. OUR NATIONAL SUPPORT SPECIALIST PARTICIPATED IN ASSESSMENTS IN LIBERIA AND OUR PHARMACY CLINICAL COORDINATOR SUPPORTED THE AFRICA MERCY AND THE GLOBAL MERCY.

New programs:
TO ADVANCE EDUCATION AND DEVELOP AND PROMOTE PUBLIC HEALTH, WE OFFERED A NURSE ANESTHESIA RE-INVESTMENT PROJECT IN GUINEA. THIS PROJECT WILL ENHANCE GAMAL UNIVERSITY'S TEACHING PROGRAM FOR NURSE ANESTHESIA STUDENTS THROUGH THE DONATION OF SUPPLIES. ANOTHER NEW PROJECT TO DEVELOP AND PROMOTE PUBLIC HEALTH IS OUR MEDICAL WASTE CONVERTER INSTALLATION PROJECT IN SENEGAL. THIS PROJECT SUPPORTS THE ONGOING INITIATIVE TO PROVIDE EQUIPMENT FOR THE SAFE AND ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND HANDLING AND PROCESSING OF MEDICAL WASTE AT HEALTHCARE FACILITIES IN SENEGAL.
