Did you know? Many low-resource countries have fewer than one doctor per 1,000 ppl. Delays in medical services due to infrastructure deficiencies can increase morbidity and mortality rates. Building high-quality healthcare infrastructure can improve patient care and outcomes 🏥🌍

A huge THANK YOU to Steve and Maggie Lansdown for funding this incredible program in #Botswana that will see thousands more children access surgery every year 🙏

Nearly 1 billion people are served by health facilities with unreliable or no access to electricity 🔌 As a result, power outages, expensive diesel, and unreliable hydropower can be catastrophic. Solar Surgery facilitates safe surgery in these conditions. bit.ly/3UDCKuF

“6 years ago we stood in front of this conference & told you that we had a vision to change the face of global children's surgery...” 💙

Thank you, @KidsOperating, for recognizing this important day! #SurgicalCare4Kids #AnesthesiaCare4Kids #SurgicalNursingCare4Kids
We're bringing surgery to children across the globe. 🌎
🙌 One of the best parts of doing this is working alongside amazing local surgical teams.
With #GlobalChildrensSurgeryDay coming up, we spoke to them to find out why children's access to surgery is so critical. 💙

Did you know? Around 70% of donated healthcare equipment remains unused today. 💡 Thoughtful procurement is the key. Make sure you’re taking clinical requirements, reliability, quality, and value for money into consideration for any healthcare infrastructure project!
