This fantastic video made by the communications team aboard the Africa Mercy gives a quick recap of all the wonderful things that happened earlier in the year in the first field service in Madagascar. Part two is now well underway!  It will give you an idea of some of the programs going on, both on board and across the country, and will give you an idea of how our Surgical Safety training team fits into the bigger picture of how Mercy Ships is working alongside health care professionals across Madagascar. Very exciting stuff!

Surgery on board started this week, and I have never been so excited about the start of surgical lists – just metres from my cabin!
