October to December 2006

Hey Guys forgot to put up the statistics for these months - rather amiss of me. The patient load is never ending and we have had trouble in keeping up with the load.
So here goes:
October 2006: 1036 patients, 63 eye patients, 23 cataracts done at Madanaplle. We worked only three weeks this month before pushing off for a break.
November 2006: Repoened the Health Centre on the 10th of November and in the first week, we did refresher traing for all our staff on basics of health care and management of emergencies. It really paid off because soon after reopening we had a lady who had a convulsion at our door step and the staff were able to handle it without resorting to "nails" etc.
We saw 518 patients, 54 eye patients of which 7 of them were operated for cataracts.
December 2006: Boy, this has been a tough month. 1776 patients blew us away, 82 eye patients and 16 operated. We could have operated more but for a shortage of funds. We raelly are struggling to make both ends meet and are hoping that some of who read this would contribute to our Health Centre.
