Challenges and Commitments

The weather in and around Ocotal has been extremely dry so far this year, as you can see in the photographs. This means that the subsistence farmers in the communities we serve are producing less food for their families. Our local health care providers and our doctor and nurse are treating more patients each month.

As government-operated local Centros de Salud run out of medicine, Nicaragua Projekt is spending more on medications for our patients. Our budget for medicine has increased by $500 each month.

The commitment and enthusiasm of our local health care providers -- brigadistas -- remains intact. In February and in May, all the brigadistas participated in the quarterly continuing education seminars run by our Nicaraguan doctor, Dr. Evertz Tercero. These seminars also offer the brigadistas a chance to exchange experiences and support each other. We are happy to see their level of knowledge increase, as they enjoy their work and using their growing skills.
