Peds Day 1

Hi folks we did our first peds blitz day yesterday and I am extremely pleased to report that it is clear that children are healthier since the last peds day almost a year ago.  This is great news!
 
We did over 100 kids before lunch so I can say that recruits both new and old are quickly into the swing of things.
 
One interesting story for the day.  The teachers at the school brought to us a young boy with fever and aches and pains.  We did some lab work and discovered that he had malaria.  We medicated him and left him to rest in one of our clinic rooms.  By the end of the day he was looking better but he has a recovery ahead of him
 
Until next time
