Madhepura Christian Hospital . . .

Snaps of the Madhepura Christian Hospital where we had our Regional Administrative Council for 2012.  We drove from NJH and had a really great time of driving through Bihar . . . Good food and great sights . . . You can read more about the place and the work going on at Dr. Augustine's blog.

The front of the hospital. A patient's relative has arrived on horseback. 

The morning devotions. The nurses are mostly from the NJH Nursing School . . .

The registration and billing section. . .

The new Intensive Care Unit . . . 

The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit . . . Awaiting a pediatrician . . .

For nursing mothers . . . 

Female ward . . . 

Male ward . . .

A working typewriter . . . Something rare nowadays . . .

Owner's pride, neighbour's envy . . .  Read neighbour as NJH . . .

I had the opportunity to visit Madhepura sometime in October, 2004. I happened to find the snaps taken during that time.

Dr. Dinesh and Sr. Shannon in the Outpatient Department.
They presently serve at Kacchwa Christian Hospital, another unit of Emmanuel Hospital Association

Morning devotions . . . 

Morning devotions  .. .. ..

Dr. Dinesh with one really old autoclave . . . 

Another snap from the OPD . . . 

Grand rounds . . . 

My room. Electricity was sparse. So, the hurricane lamp . . ,

The old incinerator . . . 

A century old X-Ray machine . . .

The pharmacy . .. ...

Another snap of the grand rounds . . . 

Sr. Shannon seeing patients in the outpatient . . . .

The store . . . 

Dr. Dinesh operating . . . 

The old Tuberculosis Wards . . . 

Another view of the grand rounds . . . 
Final say about the place . . . Another of the EHA units with a great potential. Being situated in a district headquarters, there is potential for the place being developed in almost all specialities. Kindly pray for this place that more young men and women in the healthcare field would feel led by the Lord to come and serve.
