Report about the Mission of Taroudant
Report written by Nour Mahmoudi
As one of the 4th missions that Operation Smile Morocco does in a year, some of the students of Sunderland University participated as active volunteers. We were split into different stations where they needed non-medical staff such as Medical records, Electronic Medical Records (EMR), and Patient image technician (PIT)...
On this mission 3 students (Kareema Alaoui Cherifi, Ghita Taoumi and Imane Aabid) has been trained for the post of Medical Records by Nour Mahmoudi, so that they could handle all the jobs of this important station where they were responsible of every single chart.
Jihane el bejaj was the PIT in this mission: she took pictures of all the patients before, during, and after the surgery, and Chouaib Jawadi was the EMR.
In this mission we screened 215 patients on one day, 107 child and adult were operated, and 139 Procedure was done in a period of 5 days of surgery.
Be part of the change in the life of people, give them the opportunity to have a normal life, and create a new smile on their faces are the main objective of Operation Smile Morocco which make the Student of Sunderland University participate and have the possibility to see how an operation of 45 min can be done and change the life of someone reached by a clef- lip or a clef palate.
