As a maternal-infant clinic, we can’t serve everyone at Clinica Verde. We never turn a needy patient away, but our focus is on women and children. However, practicing our mission in the communities we serve is important to our organization. It’s who we are. Recently, we received this story of service in practice:
From CV Director Dr. Alba Castillo: “This afternoon, the CV team went together to the Boaco nursing home. It was a wonderful experience to share time with our old people and bring not only the healthcare they need, but also to show them affection and respect. Everyone was very happy – both the Clinica Verde team and the elderly we spent time with. Our team showed a lot of compassion and love towards the sweet elderly people. In addition to medical care and love we gave donated adult diapers, medicines and materials they needed, and also brought along a small snack. The smiles on their faces were drawn with joy. We talked and sang together, and they thanked us for our visit. This is not the last but the first of many visits. It was wonderful.”
