Today we visited the two childrens clinics, one dealing with just local kids, the other with kids from the whole of Ukraine. Here operations are free up to the age of eighteen, but the hospitals are underfunded, and the right equipment is scarce, so money from Smile Train helps a lot.
As with Peking,and Ulan Bataar, we were struck by the cleanliness and uncluttered appearance of the hospital, the professional appearance of the staff, the obvious organisation rather than chaos, and the relaxed and unstressed atmosphere. So how do we in Hereford, with all the cash we have, manage to have such a disorganised and sloppy hospital .
