Pun Hlaing Hospitals: Continuing Community Support
It’s been nearly three weeks since the earthquake — but for many, the hardest part has only just begun.
At Kan Taw Nadi Rescue Center in Mandalay, our Pun Hlaing Hospitals team continues to provide medical support and distribute essential supplies to those still displaced. Blankets, clothing, and small comforts are helping patients cope with the long days and nights away from home.
In quieter moments, our doctors and nurses sit beside patients, helping manage chronic conditions disrupted by the crisis – from missed medications to untreated injuries.
Earlier in the response, our medical staff assisted the Fire Brigade Department in Mandalay by administering tetanus vaccinations to rescue teams. With many responders working with minimal protection among collapsed buildings and sharp debris, the risk of infection is high. A single cut can become life-threatening — and timely vaccination can make all the difference.
These are the parts of disaster response that don’t always make headlines. The slower, steadier care. The long follow-through.
Together with Yoma Group and our fellow entities, we remain present, committed, and connected to the communities that need us.
