As we embark on the 4th Annual Pharmacy Mission to Vietnam, we are humbly grateful to Temple University School of Pharmacy. Without the support and confidence of Dean Peter Doukas, The APPE office, Faculty, Staff, and Administration, this would never be possible. We are grateful to be partnering again with Mercer University, School of Biomedical Engineering. Please enjoy our experience with us!

Months of Preparations
The 2015 team was selected in November 2014. They have been meeting weekly since January 2015 in preparation for this journey. Preparations included:
1. Learning basic Vietnamese language
2. Practicing physical assessments such as, blood pressure and blood glucose monitoring and injection technique training.
3. Learning and practicing the differential diagnosis of common orthopedic illnesses that they will encounter on this mission.
4. FUNDRAISING for all medications, supplies and charity work.
WE ARE READY!!!!!!!!!
I am very proud to say that this years' team successfully raised the most money since Temple School of Pharmacy joined this Vietnam Mission, over $20,000 USD. Each and every dollar is used to purchase medications, medical supplies, and will be used to provide charity donations. (Throughout this blog you will see examples of the activities which your donations make possible.)
It goes without say that the OVERALL SUCCESS of this mission depends on the GENEROUS and SELFLESS DONATIONS from our many family, friends, and supporters.
Cam on rat Nhieu !!!! (Thank You Very Much)!!!
