Over Medical3T

Medical3T provides first aid classes to enlarge the basic medical skills in Kenya. Because a doctor or a hospital are sometimes very far away we bring the medical knowlegde to the people. First aid can play a crucial role in the improvement of the healthcare of Kenyans. In december 2019 we visited several hospitals and clinics. Personel told us that they see a lot of people that had an accident or had gotten sick many kilometers away. Most of the time they were put in a car or on the back of a motorcycle and droven to the hospital. Not only hadn't they been treated, the wounds were often way worse when arriving to the hospital due to the trip. Hospital personel sees children with burns that haven't been cooled, broken limbs that have not been splinted and feverish diseases that have been going on for too many days.

With the provision of first aid classes Medical3T makes the difference. With good skills, wounded can be treated quickly and a good transport plan can be made. In a while Medical3T hopes to contribute to this transport by means of our own ambulance. Hospitals will see their patients come in in much better circumstances. This enlarges the chances of survival and good recovery. Apart from the first aid classes we also train the health care workers in the hospital so they can provide better care for the (trauma) patiënts. With this approach Medical3T is part of the community and tackles the problem from several sides.
