SANITATION OUTREACH AT MANDERA SUB-COUNTY REFERRAL HOSPITAL

Today as the Director, #Walk of Hope Mandera County chapter,  I led #Friend and Walk of hope teams to Mandera South referral Hospital with the intent of carrying out Sanitation activities around the wards and exchanges of optimistic words with the patients to condense stress and show them a sense of belonging and boost their morale.  We met collection of patients struggling with diverse health problems.  They were happy to see us as a glimmer of hope and solidarity gestures.

We moved around the wards equipped to conduct the general cleanliness as volunteers.  The Hospital is the only big medical facility which serves residents of Mandera South Sub-County.  As pictured, we cleaned floors,  arranged beds, laying bed sheets, washing and cleaning patients utensils. The volunteers were fully prepared to provide a clean atmosphere using gloves and antiseptic or disinfectants provided by the Hospital.

Finally,  the team discussed with the health personnel, to highlight the work of the group,  the condition of the Hospital,  and proper healthcare.  The Sub-County Health Boss Dr. Alinoor Billow, encourages people in need to utilize the facility at a time when it has a good establishment.  He describes our work as a noble initiative contributing to the Hospital.  He noted that,  there were several activities earlier on conducted by me Director of #WalkofHope Mandera Chapter!
