He first came to the hospital as a trainee. He attracted attention of the personnel thanks to his extensive knowledge and great commitment. There was virtually no question in pediatrics that he wouldn’t be able to answer. When he got his diploma, the sisters offered him a job at the children’s ward.
He is one of the youngest nurses at the hospital. He works in the children’s ward, taking care of the youngest patients suffering from malnutrition and hunger disease.
He is very precise in everything he does. He talks to mothers of malnourished children, doing his best to explain as much as he can to them, sensitize them to important matters. Little patients with hunger disease are fed every 3 hours. To give the mothers an opportunity to rest, Filemon often gets up to feed the kids himself.
Thanks to monthly donations made by you and other members of the team, we can continue pushing the boundaries of what is possible and change lives.
We will send you a message whenever anything urgent requiring your immediate attention occurs. We will also keep you up to date on all important events and activities.
