MEGHAN JENKINS - MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN THAILAND
Meghan Jenkins, a 4th year Meds student at Queen's, returned from a month-long field rotation at the Mae Tao Clinic in Thailand in September and presented her experiences to K-F Club members and, by video link, to the Chiang Mai Airport Rotary Club in Thailand.
Meghan’s work focuses on improving healthcare quality and outcomes in low-resource settings, with particular attention to pediatric and maternal health. While at the Mae Tao Clinic, she studied neonatal mortality and provided evidence-based recommendations for enhancing care, which are currently being evaluated by the Chiang Mai Club together with the Clinic and may result in a joint Rotary project, supported by the K-F International Service Committee and other local Rotary clubs.
