Mapuordit Hospital Gift Certificates
In July 2009 the Renal Transplant Coordinator at Royal North Shore Hospital, Sydney, joined her long-time colleague at Mapuordit Hospital in a remote part of Southern Sudan. Her task was to help train the hospital nursing staff. At the same time she was to assist in setting up a nurses' training school for the government of South Sudan. The school will mean that future nurses have access to the best possible education and equipment. In the mean time teaching at this remote hospital has been a challenge and a delight.
A delight because despite all the privations the first Mapuordit student nurses have succeeded in passing their first block exams. A challenge because the many things we take for granted as basic hospital equipment are simply not available.
This web page offers you an opportunity to donate an item that will help these training nurses give the quality care that they are been trained to provide. Each item has been priced at the hospital suppliers, Crown, in Nairobi (This email address is being protected from spambots.

Your donation will go directly to the Mapuordit hospital and will be used to buy the item that you wish to donate.
