Medications for Each Barefoot Doctor Going Home

Soon our Barefoot Doctor students will be going home again.  They only have 2 more days of classes this week and the medical training for 2019 will be finished.  It's hard to believe their time at the Kalnin Learning Center has gone so quickly.

One of the biggest things done in preparation for their journey home is to buy the medications they will need to have on hand once they are home again.  Jung Dangshing writes,

Each year we combine the knowledge gained from previous classes and our current student’s patterns of use to create our “formulary” of life saving and improving medications and vitamins. Each student is provided with a starter kit of these medications using funds from generous donors. For example, this year each student received enough Amoxicillin to cure 160 patients with common infections, ranitidine and metronidazole to treat 25 cases of GI ulcer and deworming medication for 200 treatments.  




The students will be heading home on Monday, March 4th.  Thank you for your prayers and support,
