The SRC helps the indigenous communities to establish a system of basic health care. In addition to the general health care in 180 remote villages, a total of 2’000 children in 70 schools were given a dental check-up. Laos / Cambodia The SRC has set up a fund to give the poorest patients access to hospital treatment. This fund covered travelling expenses, medical treatment and food. Mobile medical teams travelled to remote villages and provided medical care. The SRC also supplied materials to build water systems and latrines. Romania The SRC continued its work to provide better health care for pregnant women, mothers and children. In the two poorest districts of Botosani and Iasi the SRC has trained a total of 85 community nurses and health-care assistants and set up four community centres. Sudan In the western province of Sudan, Darfur, the SRC was responsible for the medical services for the internally displaced as well as the nomad population. Especially pregnant women and small children received medical treatment. Swaziland In southern Africa about 33% of the adult population are infected with HIV. The Red Cross is working on the front line of the epidemic in prevention, home care and providing medical treatment for AIDS patients. In the Red Cross clinic in Sigumbeni AIDS patients have been receiving antiretroviral therapy for the past two years, a first for this rural region. The SRC is now supporting two more rural clinics. The proceeds of the Swiss Red Cross Ball 2007 will be used for projects in Vietnam: 50 houses are to be built in the Ca Mau province of Ho Gui village, providing 275 people with a safe home. Romania: Continuing with improving the health care programme for mothers and young children. Paraguay: Supporting a training center in San Miguel which helps young peasants to receive culturally adapted training. Sudan: Set up the health service in the region of Yirol.
