On 5 October UMN’s Okhaldhunga Community Hospital gave medical support for a blood donation event organised by Nepal Police and the Red Cross Society of Solukhumbu District, on the occasion of Nepal Police Day. The donors included 14 police staff and also the chairman of the local rural municipality who is a former patient! He shared his appreciation of the hospital and the care he received after an appendectomy operation last year. The blood can be used by patients in our hospital. We give thanks for the successful event and for all who organised it and took part!
