Countries : Sri Lanka
Info
All Inspire Sri Lanka projects are based in the Kosgoda area on the south west coast.
This small hospital is located just 5 minutes from town and is set in lush tropical surrounding serving the locals for a 10 mile radius.
The hospital has 30 beds, a maternity unit and separate male and female wards as well as a small unit treating small emergency treatments. Like most areas outside of the cities the small hospitals run on very few staff. This one has just one resident Doctor and the other staff are either being trained on site or work on a voluntary basis.
Most medics once qualified stay close to the cities where earning potential is higher thus putting more strain on the rural hospitals. More serious cases get transferred to a bigger hospital about 20 miles away or to one of the 4 teaching hospitals in the capital of Colombo.
