Your Gifts at Work
PARTNERSHIP
YOUR GIFT OF TIME SAVE LIVES
For more than a decade, our founders and other volunteers have worked hard to build relationships with Vietnamese colleagues. These have included Vietnamese politicians, hospitals, physicians, and support personnel. These trusted relationships have allowed us to have great confidence in the surgeries being performed and the sustainability of the surgery program for years to come.
Skills Training
MEDICAL ADVANCEMENTS SHARED
Dr. Forsberg and Dr. Hoyt have provided lectures and workshops on the topics of airway management and advanced cardiac imaging procedures to the medical staff members at our Vietnamese partner hospitals. They have served as guest lecturers at international medical conferences in Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang, Vietnam.
Our physician volunteers visit Hoan My hospitals, observe procedures, and review quality data to assure the surgeries performed are of excellent quality.
Medical Clinics
SCREENING & NEEDS ASSESSMENTS
Along with our partner hospital medical personnel, we plan and participate in health screening clinics for school children and community members.
​
Our physicians and other volunteers come alongside Vietnamese partners to provide medical care to underserved regions. Such clinics have been held on the Mekong Delta and Binh Dinh Provence (Central Vietnam). Medical screening and portable cardiac ultrasound have been utilized to identify many patients in need of life-saving surgery.
