Who We Are. Types of Assistance.
Medical assistance is aimed at long-term improvement in the health of impoverished populations.
Practically, this is provided in the form of staffing for clinics and hospitals, donation and training in use of medical equipment and pharmaceuticals, construction of health facilities, and development of essential programs for lasting health maintenance. Our emphasis is on education and the development of pragmatic medical care infrastructure. Field Training Target. We seek to educate emergency medicine, surgery, and primary care residents about health care provision in an environment of scarcity. These residents are physicians still completing training in their field of specialization who have not yet settled into practice.
