This morning was a little hectic getting started as the bus was loaded with suitcases in preparation for returning to The City after clinic. One group headed to Clinica Caris for their usual clinic, one group headed to Xepocol and we headed to a school in Lemoa.
We saw 80 students in the school today and it was great. We first met with the director and he explained how he had organized the students and activities. Each student had 3 name tags with different colors depending on the activity they should be involved in. This way we could tell if the student should be in the eduational area or being seen by the medical or dental staff.
This photo is of the students watching the DVD that was shown on helping them understand Christian Character.
All of the children were screened with height, weight, temperature and eye exams. These photo are of the eye screening process. Erin, Lydia, Somer, Elsa and Oliva all helped with this.
Nathan and Jennifer check out one of the students.
We were able to refer some children back to Clinica Caris for further care. One girl needs some dental work done but prior to that needs antibiotic treatment, one girl had a corneal abrasion while another will be seen for abnormal heart sounds.
The teachers were great to work with and really kept the flow of students going smooth.
