Among other things, hospital beds, gynecological chairs or incubators, as well as ultrasound equipment, are to go to Cameroon and the Central African Republic.
- This is equipment that, due to the standardization of our medical services in the European Union, can no longer be used. However, there are places where it can still be used professionally and help many women, children. Many gynecological diseases will be able to be diagnosed," the hospital's director, Professor Maciej Wilczak, MD, said at a press conference.
- I returned from Cameroon two weeks ago. I saw how much that help was needed there on the ground. I also saw the equipment that had already been donated. This equipment is still in use today, and compared to what the missionary hospitals and clinics there have at their disposal, this equipment is top-notch," adds Justyna Janiec-Palczewska, president of the Humanitarian Aid Foundation "Redemptoris Missio"
Two tons of bandages will also be sent to Africa.
