New Volunteer

St. Bernard Health Center is excited to announce the addition of a new staff member. Jake Helmer is a Benedictine Volunteer from Saint John’s University in Collegeville, Minnesota, USA. He graduated from Saint John’s in 2014 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Health Science and has plans to attend medical school in the US after his time in Tanzania. Jake arrived in Hanga on July 24^th and will be working for the Health Center full-time until April 1^st. During the mornings, Jake helps in the laboratory with cleaning, obtaining specimen from patients, microscopic slide staining and record keeping. When patients are not present, he likes to study and practice Kiswahili with the other laboratory staff members. Jake spends his afternoons looking for ways to improve the Health Center. Recently, he, along with help from the staff, created a new patient history filing system that will allow the Health Center to have detailed records of patient’s previous visits. This new change will keep the Health Center more organized and provide better care to patients. He is very happy to have the opportunity to work at the Health Center and we are excited have him. We look forward to the new ideas and improvements he can bring to the Health Center in his time with us. Welcome Jake!
