As part of the activity of Sarawak Hospice Society, today we donated a set of equipment to Persatuan Sukarelawan Kanser Sabah. This NGO is relatively new and currently engaged in assisting cancer patients in Sabah in many ways. They are doing cancer screening and providing emotional support for patients undergoing cancer treatment. They have done some home visits. As they do not have equipment for home care, our society decided to help them with the same.
We had a lengthy discussion about our experience in home care. They are very keen to learn more in this area, and we have decided to provide training for them via zoom.
It was a wonderful experience to learn about their challenges, and we hope to have a fruitful collaboration so that more patients in East Malaysia will benefit.
