A worldwide fellowship of doctors, nurses and volunteers delivering life‑saving care where it is needed most.
Cancer of the Cervix claimed 350,000 lives in 2022 though it is preventable and curable.
Rotarians worldwide are actively engaged in eliminating Cervical Cancer. A recent online seminar gave us an opportunity to share what we have learned so far, celebrate our successes, and consider further action.
BOOTH (1234) IN THE HOUSE OF FRIENDSHIP
We look forward to welcoming you to our Booth in the House of Friendship. Booth number is 1234, in the Fellowship zone. As before it will be a hub of activities – renewing old friendships, making new ones and most importantly exchanging ideas.
FELLOWSHIP MEETING – TUESDAY 16TH JUNE 13:30-14:30
We've been allocated a meeting room at TaiNEx1, floor 5F – Room 500. Come and hear from our members changing lives through innovative health programmes. (This event will not be listed in the main Convention programmes but in the list of Unofficial Affiliated Events.)
Our Fellowship draws its unique strength from the fact that we are a multidisciplinary group reflecting the delivery of medical care in real life where health professionals work together to deliver the best patient care.
The Fellowship is open to all Rotarians with interest in health matters. It is also open to non-Rotarian health professionals. So, wherever you are, please join us so that we can together work towards a better world. membermojo.co.uk/irfhp
We are reaching out to them and to those who care for them.
We often hear amazing stories about Rotary's impact on healthcare in different parts of the world.
There are hundreds of health programmes initiated by Rotarians, many changing lives. Rotarians invest countless voluntary hours setting up health camps, offering free treatment, transporting medications and donating medical equipment.
At present we also do not have a way of sharing our experiences and learning from each other. Valuable lessons learned are lost in the mist of time.
We have decided to compile an open Directory of Health Programmes – for sharing and encouraging one another.
If you are involved in a health programme please share information about your work with other like-minded people. Click on the link below to register your programme and also see a list of programmes in different parts of the world.
We call on Rotarians to use our vast resources to ensure that patients receive safe and respectful care and do not suffer harm whilst in care.
Globally 2.4 million children died in the first month of life. In 2019 there were 6,700 new-born deaths every day. Approximately one third are due to Asphyxia and lack of resuscitation. By implementing Helping Babies Breathe, we can reduce avoidable deaths with successful breathing and resuscitation techniques.
Helping Babies Breathe is an evidenced-based hands-on neonatal resuscitation program designed to save new-born lives in resource-limited environment.
"Dear Colleagues, Rotarian Friends! Thank you so much! Your support is incredibly important for us here in Ukraine. With sincere respect and gratitude to you"Dr Volodymyr Korolenko, Fellowship member
