Our History
The first team deployed in 2015 travelling into the remote community of Chitre where they set up the first health post in a borrowed ‘UN’ tent. This health post is now part of a network of four remote clinical posts that have been manned by Nepali, Australian, Dutch, English, American and Scottish clinicians and has assisted thousands of people. Recently a shift from providing medical support to focusing on training the local workforce and providing equipment will ensure a sustainable ability for the community accessing health care.
