AmeriCares supplies distributed to Shada Clinic

Thanks to AmeriCares we were able to distribute much needed ORS, IV sets and fluid, antibiotics, gloves, disinfectant, hand sanitizer, children's bandages and nutritional supplements. Madame Bwa and all the clinic staff where there to receive the supplies and were extremely grateful: the pharmacy is being restocked as we speak.

Before these supplies came the community of Shada was relying on Madame Bwa to make home-made oral serum day and night because of the poor access they have to treated water.

We also supplied some MSPP posters and creole educational info for the clinic staff.
