Wonju Severance Christian Hospital Takes Medical Mission Trip to Cambodia
 
 
 
From January 17 to 23, a medical volunteer team from Wonju Severance Christian Hospital was on a medical mission trip in Sisophon, Cambodia. There, the team members visited the Mongkol Borei Referral Hospital and Banteay Meanchey Methodist Churchto to provide free medical care to more than 700 local residents.
 
The team members also gave health education lectures, which covered topics like sexual health, dental hygiene, hand washing, cough etiquette, food poisoning, alcohol addiction, and emergency first aid treatment.
 
Since the first medical mission trip to Bangladesh in 1992, more than 400 faculty and staff members from Wonju Severance Christian Hospital have traveled overseas to provide free medical services to those in need. These volunteers continue to epitomize the hospital’s motto: “Christian Mission through Medical Service.”
