Renal or kidney failure is a major health crisis in Belize and the Taiwanese government has committed to help with a three year "Renal Failure Prevention Project". The idea behind the project is that prevention is better than cure, and it is best to detect cases at an early stage to avoid costly and scarce dialysis later on. That's why the second disbursement of funding under this project will be used for screening, hosting for medical officers in Western Health Region, and other early awareness programs.
The Project will also have four seed instructors from KHMH and La Loma Luz Hospital receive training in Taiwan for two months this year. In addition, two Taiwanese Nephrologists and one Dialysis Nurse came to Belize to provide clinical training.
