Hospitals Served

CF began in 2003 by helping provide pharmaceuticals, medical equipment and supplies to Savusavu Hospital. As their Sub-division medical officers have been transferred to other areas, the transferees have often asked if we could help their new hospitals as well. So we now assist Savusavu, Labasa, Nabouwalu and Ba hospitals. And often we obtain pharmaceutical donations far larger than these hospitals could possibly utilize, so in 2008 we began large shipments of essential medicines to Fiji Pharmaceuticals & Biomedical Services to distribute to Fiji’s 220 hospitals, medical centers and nursing stations, and have been told that SCF is their largest donor.
