Heidi has had the opportunity, once a week during the month of February, to go along with other clinic nurses to help with the Community Health Clinics (CHC). A group of 3 or 4 nurses and sometimes other volunteers go out to surrounding villages. Infants and children are given their childhood vaccinations, and the moms are also given education about how to help keep their kids healthy. It has been a very rewarding experience. She has also enjoyed time outside of Ukarumpa and being able to interact with Papua New Guineans where they are more comforable, in their own villages.
