VIN supplied 10,000 paper bags to Kavresthali health post. The bags are for patients to put prescribed medicine to take home. Before supply of the bags people were carrying medicines on hand. They lost medicine and there was no clear instructions to use medicine. This has supported people to carry medicine safely and the instructions mention outside bag make it easy for them to understand the instructions. Also there are health messages on next side of the bag which aware people about use of medicine, its adverse effects and message to seek doctor on getting sick. This has supported health post for systemic dispensing of medicine and reduce plastic use contributing the environment safety. The health post management committee and health service providers are happy to get this support. They feel convenient with the paper bags. They appreciate the support did by VIN.
VIN has been supporting remote health center of Nepal through public health and medical care project. The organization has supported Jitpurphedi health post and Taluwa health post with medical supplies and health care. Now we are working for Kavresthali health post. We work to improve the services providing by the health center. People would get the basic health services in those centre at free of cost.
We would like to thank Public health and medical care volunteer Maeve Hawkes from Australia for her kind contribution for paper bags. We appreciate the support provided by her.
It can be an opportunity for all to support VIN’s public health and medical project by donating health materials and equipment’s or by raising funds for those activities.
