Recognising the significant impact of burns injury in Fiji
, and the need to continually improve local capacity to treat burns,
Interplast is pleased to be able to continue to support our Fijian partners
to
deliver training to local medical personnel, even when we aren’t able to be
there in-person.
This week our colleagues at the Colonial War Memorial Hospital in Suva
are hosting a Burns Nursing Seminar,
which Interplast is pleased to be able to
support, as part of our
Australian
Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade
ANCP activities. Interplast Nurse Educator Jan Rice will present,
remotely, on wound management for burns.
This seminar
includes nurses from across the Fiji Islands.
Supporting our local partners to deliver training and professional development
initiatives
like this demonstrates huge progress towards sustainability of specialised clinical care in Fiji,
and we couldn’t be prouder to play a small role in this.

It was wonderful to receive an update from Solomon Mbusa
on the outcome of the MERC
(Medical Equipment Recycling Committee) equipment
that has been distributed in the Congo.
Solomon provided an overview of the charity that
he works for
called The Murimo Centre, which is seeks to address
poverty and hunger by educating the local community
in sustainable integrated agriculture that will create job sustainability
and food sources for local communities.
Below you can see an example of medical
equipment donated
as part of MERC through West Perth Rotary Club
being used by
those who need it most in Pinga Walikale in the Congo.
We look forward to hearing more from Solomon
following his return from the Congo in a few months.

is assured with a
new Board ' in waiting' elected to take over in June 2021.
Our guest speaker tonight was Jane Davies,
the Business Development Manager at Bridging the Gap
. Jane explained that Bridging the Gap has been part of our local community
for many years providing a range of Federal and State funded programs
that deliver employment, career development and training services
through its partnerships with local community based organisations
across the Perth to Peel region.
Jane went on to outline their latest project which is Containers for Change.
The Rockingham Rotary Market is now a community partner
in this project which seeks to increase recycling and reduce the number
of drink containers that litter our environment in Western Australia.
Jane stated that this new project has provided Bridging the Gap
with a secure funding stream that also helps the protect
the environment at the same time
