Orthopaedic equipment for Kilinochi Hospital
The Killinochi Hospital recently opened an Orthopedic department following the appointment of an orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Sutharshan. AMAF with the help of Rotary Club jointly funded orthopaedic surgical equipment to the value of approximately $200,000. The new Orthopaedic unit will provide valuable service to the people in the Vanni region and the victims of motor vehicle accidents.
Patients who needed to travel to the Jaffna or Vavuniya hospitals for orthopaedic consultation and management, now have access to the same service locally.

INCINERATOR PURCHASE FOR MAHILADITHEEVU HOSPITAL
As per the World Health Organisation, 15% of waste generated by healthcare activities is “hazardous material that may be infectious, chemical or radioactive”. Hospitals commonly use medical incinerators to dispose of this waste safely. Mahiladitheevu Divisional Hospital generates about 10-15kg of infectious and chemical wastes. AMAF funded the purchase and installation of an advanced gasified incinerator unit that uses minimal fuel, which is now in regular use at Mahiladitheevu Divisional Hospital.
