Medical Assistance: Securing a nebulizer for a child—Alton al-Jurd, Tartous

Rand’s mother will not be worried anymore about her daughter’s frequent and sudden asthma attacks, especially during the night, after she was offered a nebulizer through the Medical Aid Programme. Henceforward, the mother can secure her daughter’s free treatment at home instead of depending on expensive specialized clinics and/or hurrying to the nearest hospital 40 km away from her place of residence.
It is noteworthy that the SSSD team had monitored the girl’s need through her participation in recreational activities held by SSSD at the Alton al-Jurd Community Centre, after which
she was referred to the Medical Assistance Programme.
