This project targets trauma care in rural Nepal. Over this summer, we will begin by assessing the state of trauma care in Nepal and South Asia in general. Then, we will work with on-site personnel on a pilot program improving trauma care using community health workers. Next summer, I hope to pursue field work in Nepal through the Leadership-in-Action component.
