Yotkom June Appeal: Operating Theatre Equipment

The Yotkom Project is running an Appeal for Operating Equipment to assist in providing high quality healthcare of patients.

Dr Andrew Wright and his wife, Anne were recently awarded Australia Day honours for their long term work overseeing the Yotkom Project in Kitgum, Uganda.

They are working on expanding the health facility and upgrading the facilities; and they need our help.

Healthserve is trying to assist them to purchase:

A clinically appointed operating Table

Operating Theatre Lights

A biochemical analyser

We are aiming to raise $20,000 AUD.

Can you assist Yotkom to continue to deliver quality health care in Uganda?

To develop sustainable health programmes that will improve the total health and wellbeing of communities.

HSA aims to help build a community's capacity for meeting its own health needs through partnership with community groups in projects.

Project Strategy

Projects supported would involve:

• Rural community health clinics, special units in hospitals where patients have a lack of access to such facilities
• Training of all kinds of health workers with an emphasis on community health
• Post graduate training and professional development of health graduates through in-service courses, with scholarlarships available
• The provision of multimedia resources for health education, and training of all kinds of health workers
• Community health development in dentistry
• Health education of school teachers, students and community leaders

HSA also works in partnership with other international organisations, complementing their strengths with health resources. It has a special relationship with the largest group of Christian health professionals in Australia, the Christian Medical and Dental Fellowship of Australia (CMDFA) through which it was established. Many of the CMDFA members have worked for a number of years overseas in health work.
