As THC director Graham, his Teesside University colleague Jula and the students come to end of their two weeks in Battambang, they are reflecting on an enriching and life-changing experience.

As well as working with our friends and colleagues in the hospitals, the team has had time for some rest and relaxation. Graham joined the doctors’ football team and the team met our friends and colleagues Dr Dara and Dr Nhel who joined in a few dance moves. A very big thank you to our friend York Sottha who helped to ensure the trip ran smoothly.

Graham said: “Thanking all at Battambang Provincial Referral Hospital and Roka Community Hospital, Cambodia, for their warm welcome and hospitality. It is 12 years since I started working in the hospital and the changes and developments have been amazing to witness.”

Our Teesside University students are in the second week of their placement. They have been adapting to working in the hospital and to the climate.

The students visited the Battambnag Nursing School and observed not only how things are different, but also how many things are same in nurse education at home.

The students have also visited Roka village school, where they demonstrated correct handwashing techniques to the children. The children were so delighted to see our group and asked loads of questions.

The team has spent two days at Roka Community Hospital working with our friend and colleague hospital director Dr Samnang and his team. The students have really enjoyed this experience.

THC director Graham and Teesside University colleague Jula Sill were honoured to be dinner guests of our friend Dr Nhel Oum and meet the regional health minister Dr Bunreath.

The students visited the school of nursing, joined a lesson and were presented with some beautiful commemorative scarves.

We are very grateful to all of our Cambodians friends and colleagues for making the students so welcome, especially our good friend York Sottha.

Tomorrow sees the students heading for Roka Community Hospital to meet our friends and colleagues director Dr Samnang Eng and head of nursing Rady Yen, who have both visited the UK on study tours with us.
