Today was our first visit to the Bago City Hospital where we received a warm welcome from the friendly staff that was eager and excited for us to be there. They were very supportive as they already started to pre-screen patients. We toured around the hospital, started to unpack the supplies and plan out job details in preparation for tomorrow, clinic day. For many of the team members this was the first glance at this community, their culture and way of living and it was clear that we had come to the right place.
