Yemen's healthcare sector suffers a plethora of inadequacies, the consequence of significant constraints posed by the ongoing civil war.
Many hospitals lie abandoned and in ruins.
Medical services, medication and equipment are all in short supply. Healthcare professionals rely on international support to enable them to carry out primary healthcare for the benefit of patients, but the demands have become excessive since the outbreak of civil war.
Healthcare workers do their level best, but are ill-equipped.
Gift of the Givers has, therefore, stepped in to provide healthcare support in Yemen. Such support includes the provision of medication and wheelchairs to poor families. Where patients remotely based or too poor to reach medical facilities, Gift of the Givers transports patients to and from such facilities.
Additionally, we provide medical equipment, food and water to specific medical facilities, thus ensuring these facilities remain operational.
The response by Gift of the Givers includes support for both Al Khuzna Village and for medical centres and the patients they serve.
With modest technical equipment and skills, our team in Taiz, Yemen, has launched the Yemen Virtual Hospital project. This groundbreaking initiative is the first hospital that doesn't require a physical building or beds, but instead relies on virtual consultations to provide healthcare services in remote coastal districts.The project aims to empower patients by connecting them to specialists in a range of disciplines - including obstetrics, oncology, internal medicine, dermatology, psychiatry, cardiology, hepatology, endocrinology and neurology - without the need for arduous travel. This is particularly important in Yemen, where geographical challenges and ongoing conflict make access to specialised medical care extremely difficult.Mokha General Hospital (acting as a peripheral centre) will receive support and advice from central hospitals in Taiz city, working closely with medical staff and local authorities. Through the use of technology, this virtual hospital model aims to fill critical healthcare gaps in underserved regions, bringing hope and medical access to communities that have been systematically marginalised.Join our efforts in Yemen: Donate online: https://giftofthegivers.org/online-payment/ Bank details: https://giftofthegivers.org/make-a.../banking-details/ When making a donation, please use the country name as a reference.#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #SA #SouthAfrica #Yemen #ReliefAid #HealthCare #YemenVirtualHospital

Abdul Hafiz has been a resident of our Arrahma Medical Residence in Yemen for over a year and a half. He had been suffering from kidney failure for a long time and had to spend a lot of time at the dialysis centre at Al-Thawra Hospital, which was far from his home. This situation made his battle with the disease much harder. He had to travel from his home to the centre twice a week.We provided Abdul Hafiz with accommodation, food and medical care until his condition stabilised. He then began the process of a kidney transplant, which was performed two weeks ago. Thankfully, the operation was a success and today Abdul Hafiz is in good health and making a full recovery after a long battle with his illness.Join our intervention in Yemen: Donate online: https://giftofthegivers.org/online-payment/ Bank details: https://giftofthegivers.org/make-a.../banking-details/ When making a donation, please use the country name as a reference.#GiftoftheGivers #MakeADifference #ForTheGreaterGood #MiddleEast #Yemen #Healthcare #ArrahmaMedicalResidence #RecoveryStory
