Assist International in Djibouti:
Djibouti (East Africa) sits on the "Horn of Africa," not more than 4 hours by boat across the Red Sea to Yemen. The country is one of the poorest in Africa.
Assist in Djibouti:
The Peltier Hospital is the referral and teaching hospital and the only hospital available for all the people of Djibouti. The Intensive Care Facility's cardiac care monitors were refurbished to "like new" condition. Assist International provided a 6-bed telemetry system, a 6-bed Philips flat screened full perimeter cardiac care monitoring system with central station to the new Cardiology Wing. 6 Philip Veridia Monitors on roll stands completed the project. The hospital went from a hospital with only 4 working monitors to one with 24 systems by which patients can be monitored.
