On my first adventure as a PA, I will be joining YWAM in Papua New Guinea as a part of the Primary Healthcare Team. The teams set up mobile clinics ashore in the villages. Each day is different! Some days the teams will operate in a local health facility alongside local health workers, and other days the team may set up under a mango tree, or in a church. Supplies are transported in backpacks to ensure the clinic is mobile and easy to set up in a range of locations. The primary health care teams have an emphasis on health education, and mother and child health care as per PNG’s National Health Plan. Teams provide well-baby checks and childhood immunizations for children, and family planning and antenatal care for women. A typical clinic day may also include a range of additional clinical care, including treatment of tropical diseases and respiratory illness, basic wound care, physiotherapy for soft-tissue injuries and therapeutic treatment and advice for individuals with disabilities. These teams also focus heavily on building capacity through peer support and training to strengthen the rural health workforce.
