Excerpt:
The Green Pastures Hospital provides physical rehabilitation services for people who have lost limbs or injured spinal cords, enabling them to resume their lives and regain their independence to work and reintegrate into family and community activities.
The ICRC, in cooperation with the International Nepal Fellowship, started supporting the Green Pastures Hospital in 2004. The hospital’s physical rehabilitation centre receives support in the form of training, financial assistance, supplies, equipment and the materials necessary for fabricating artificial limbs.
