Many waited in line to have a face to face encounter with a missionary nurse and midwife (assisted by two local nurses). They shared their chief complaint and hoped we were able to help with our limited medicines and supplies. Since it was "winter" we exhausted all our supplies of cold, cough,fever and pain medicines.
All who presented were given multivitamins and iron tabs with a check of their vital signs providing basic care.
We later visited the postpartum ward and presented blankets donated by two Texas Midwives.
We signed the visitor's book after serving in the community health center for about eight hours.
