Medical team in actions

With huge help and funding for the medical team from the sponsors in Singapore, the One-2-One CAMBODIA is able to purchase the various medical equipments.

It is wonderful and most encouraging for the team.

As a result we have held training workshops to ensure that every one knows HOW to use and maintain the equipments correctly.

You can see Kosal and also Sreynin , Sophear and Hor in the volunteering work.

Thank you again Singapore team for making the medical clinic possible with your generous donation of the equipments.



Actions in SMILe Project

You can see the One-2-One team lead by Dr Callum explaining and discussing what we hope to do, listening to them to understand what their needs are and how we can best achieve the desired outcome.

Then we set out to have a look at what the dental situation is like and make some friends .... show the Mum's and the children that dentists can be friends as well...

For many foreigners who were present, this is a first so it was important for them to see the MOBILE chairs and what the examination and treatment activity would look like when we come back with a larger service delivery team. This created a real buzz in the community.

They are excited about the training and the integrated way that we plan to help them and work with them. Their faces beamed when we told them that we would run training courses on how to keep healthy. It was a very happy day for all concerned.

We will be back in October for a needs assessment trip and focus group interviews to better understand what the dental and medical needs are, what the pattern of feeding is for the preschoolers so that we can better educate the mothers and the health care volunteers.  This will be a week long visit. During this time our staff will live in the village and be part of the happenings.

In November then we will be back with training sessions and December our service team will commence work with the assistance of the village mum's, health care volunteers and community leaders we trained to work along side with us. So watch this space ...

Thank you for journeying with us. Together that which is impossible for each individually becomes possible. This is a reality that we all dreamt and hoped for. Partnership participation and protection for the sake of the children of Cambodia.

Introducing SMILe Project in Kampong Spue

Kampong Spue is the first community for the Cambodia Camkids SMILe project. We believe that this is a first for Cambodia. This is a collaboration between One-2-One CAMBODIA and Camkids.  Camkids and One-2-One make history together AGAIN !!!!

The area is about 1 1/2 hours from Phnom Penh and the drive there passes through beautiful scenery which belies the hardship of the people in this community.

The nearest Government health clinic is 25 KM away and with no public transport. The only  motor vehicle available belongs to the village chief. All the villagers we spoke to had never been out of their community. Phnom Penh is another world to them ...

KAD (Khmer association for development) has been working in this community, They brought the attention of the plight of the poor to our attention, (the lack of dental medical care, the geographical isolation). With funding from Camkids and One-2-One's manpower this project came into being.

3 prong approach - provision of desperately needed dental relief of pain with medical treatment and prevention measures as well as training of the village stakeholders so that they can better look after them selves.

This trip was to gauge community interest and to meet with the Cambodian stakeholders of this community i.e, the village chiefs and the local village health care volunteer as well as villagers. We explained to them what we plan to do and how we hope to involve them in the planning of service delivery.

Transporting teams in serving the communities

Taking children from orphanages to receive dental treatment and check up.

One-2-One van has been working over time transporting our team to prison, slums, orphanages . We are so grateful for it. Thanks to Dr Barry from Australia for his kind donation.

Here is Makara with our One-2-One Tuk Tuk which has been so generously donated by our Singapore donors. Th tuk tuk is worked  equally hard and used for smaller groups to maximize efficiency of our resources.
