Medical Missions to Africa
Wings of Healing started medical missions in Ethiopia 2011. We conducted 2 medical campaigns every year till 2015. Since then we carried more frequent campaigns. Up to March 2020, WOH carried out 40 medical campaigns and performed over 2600 surgical procedures for pelvic organ prolapse and over 100 procedures for different types of gynaecological cancer. We focus on providing care in the rural areas where expertise and facilities are limited. WOH provides all the surgical material required and provided assistance for patients’ travel. During many campaigns, patients received as well food and clothes. We are currently focusing on training local doctors and nurses in Ethiopia to deliver the service in many parts of the country. We have provided cervical screening to over 10,000 women in Mother Teresa’s Missionaries of Charities and many local hospitals and Health Centres. This has prevented at least 3,000 cases of cervical cancer. Read more
