Clinton Mills recently donated
a 4-6 year supply of medi
cal items to Mrs. Richard Bir
chard, a medical missionary in
Nicaragua.
Mrs. Birchard, who has been
a medical missionary since 1934,
has administered medical assis
tance to 11,500 patients in the last
11 months. To these, she gave
8,500 injections and pulled over
600 teeth. Mrs. Birchard, a re
gistered nurse, stated she op
erates the medical dispensary
Tuesday through Friday noon
without any nurse’s aids or pro
fessional medical help.
She is looking forward to re
turning to Nicaragua to help es
tablish a new medical dispensary.
This one will be located at Valley
of Pantasma in Jinotega,Nicara
gua, Central America.
“Medical supplies are diffi
cult to get m the remote areas,”
noted Mrs. Birchard. “One must
take particular care of all in
struments since they are hard to
replace.” Medical supplies are
imported from the United States
and Europe.
Most of her patients must
travel great distances to get
medical attention. Since trans
portation is poor, many die en
route before they reach the dis
pensary.
She noted that the people are
quite receptive to medical help.
They suffer from malnutrition,
intestinal parasites, and malaria.
Mrs. Birchard’s husband,
Richard, is a Nazarene minis
ter, and he’s working toward es
tablishing a church near the new
dispensary.
Mrs. Birchard is a sister of
Mrs. Locke Simons of Clinton.
