Female medical workers overcome difficulties and fears to give villagers medical treatment

At Thượng Trạch Commune’s health centre, female doctors have the duty of caring for the health of people from Bru – Vân Kiều and Chứt ethnic minorities in 18 villages scattered throughout the border area. Most roads are rough and dirt with many rockslides, making it hard for medical workers to access to patients’ home and provide emergency treatment.
