Health Care
An important mission
Health Care
Many of the children we care for (almost all) do not have adequate health care. Therefore we try to compensate with periodic medical/pediatric visits.
We have useful contacts with the Pediatrics of Timisoara, thanks to which we have also done eye checks on many children.
This is the SCJU Timisoara Pediatric section, Spital Bega, led by prof. Liviu Pop.
These, in addition to having already done a visit (over 40 children) with a group of volunteer doctors, take care of the cases that we send to Timisoara.
A talented German pediatrician, Dr. Wilma Kresonja-Friedewald, spent four full days with us, examining 110 children (of all ages), free of charge. Medicines and various aids (diapers, bottles, etc.) were provided.
Further information followed, drawing on the various medical connections we have in Timisoara.
The help of our friend Liane Klemm (and her colleagues) was invaluable, including as an interpreter. Here’s a beautiful PHOTOBOOK illustrating the procedure.
Thanks to the sponsorship of LIONS CLUB PARMA HOST, we are providing ophthalmological visits to many children and purchasing the necessary glasses.
We periodically have the “fight against lice”.
Since we cannot trust the families, we take care of the washing ourselves, with special shampoo.
