Rwanda Health Journal

I'm now in NYC. Post Rwanda. Post Haiti. For those of you who knew my blog 5 years ago, I wrote about Rwanda. At that time, via the generous support of the Durant Fellowship awarded by Massachusetts General Hospital, I worked as a nurse in Rwanda from 2006-2007 with Partners In Health as well as with the Clinton HIV/AIDS Initiative in two rural health districts to launch primary care services to the community. Now I'm doing primary care in an underserved area in NYC.
