We are delighted to announce the generous donation of a Philips C-Arm Mobile Imaging Unit (BV Endura) by the HSE and Mercy University Hospital, Cork to Nepal Leprosy Trust (Ireland).
This advanced medical imaging device has been transferred to our partner organisation, Nepal Leprosy Trust (Nepal), for use at Lalgadh Leprosy Hospital and Services Centre, located in Province 2, Nepal. The C-Arm unit plays a vital role in enhancing the medical care of leprosy patients in the region.
Importantly, the unit’s services will also be made available to the wider local community, with any income generated being reinvested to support and sustain leprosy treatment and outreach services in Province 2. This initiative marks another step forward in our vision of developing a sustainable healthcare model for the hospital.
We sincerely thank the HSE and Mercy University Hospital for their invaluable support. The generosity will directly improve the lives of countless individuals in Nepal.
