Foundation visiting teams are based at the National Referral Hospital (NRH) in the capital, Honiara, where they work with local staff to deliver medical education and services. The focus on medical education aims to add to the long term sustainability of the program and provide opportunities to Solomons doctors they might not otherwise be able to access.
The Foundation continues to build on its relationship with the Solomon Islands High Commission, Solomon Islands Ministry of Health and the Executive at the National Referral Hospital, Honiara to develop a program in direct alignment with the needs of the Solomon Islands community.
The Foundation coordinates the considerable logistics for each trip, such as freight and customs issues in both Australia and the Solomons, and also sources consumables to ensure NRH supplies are not depleted.
