Visit General Hospital Singapore

 

On 1 February 2024  Helma visited the burn center in the general Hospital of Singapore. Impressed by the skinbank, on the ward and the laboratory and the facilities on the ward the visit was very worthwhile. In the morning Helma gave a presentation how the burn care in the Netherlands was organized. Furthermore there was interest in the treatment option in Africa. As Papaya is also available in Singapore many nurses were interested in this treatment.

 

 

Later on a visit to the operating theatre with 50 operating theatre was impressive.
