Since the beginning of the Togo Outreach, I have been serving as a ward nurse and charge nurse in the orthopedic and maxillary facial surgical areas. Plastic surgery is soon to begin and I was approached about serving in a new role as Reconstructive Care Coordinator.
In this new role, along with my friend Jane who has been managing the Outpatients Department, we will be responsible for overseeing the care of the Plastic Surgery patients on the ward, for rounding with the surgeon in the morning and performing sterile dressing changes on the plastics patients, many of whom will receive surgery to release old burn scar contractures and skin grafts. Let the wound care by Sensei Jane and Grasshopper begin!
