First Day of Clinic - Medical

Michele gave a training session about burns to the clinic staff. They were very attentive and appreciated her time.  Michele saw some medical patients at the clinic, including a young boy around 9 years old.  The Kenyan children typically run through the corn fields, and the corn husks sometimes injure them.  This young boy had been stuck in the leg with a corn husk the day before, but he pulled it out himself.  Today, his leg was very swollen and hurt too much to walk on it.  Michele cleaned the wound and dressed it with a bandage.  


Sharon trained the clinic staff on the portable ultrasound machine.  They hope to use it more tomorrow during the Mama/Baby Clinic scheduled for Tuesday morning.
