Operation FIRST Cambodia commences outreach program

Operation FIRST - Rose Charities close partner rehab. surgery  organization in Cambodia is starting an outreach program for mainly cleft lip and palate surgery. The first mission will take place at the Military Hospital in Siem Reap from the 20th March.  Dr Nous Sarom, the founder and President of Operation FIRST has considerable experience in outreach operations having been involved in such with both Rose Charities and Operation SMILE.
Operation FIRST , based at Chea Chumneas Hospital  ( www.FirstRose.org )  is one of Cambodia's leading centers for all types of rehabilitation surgery and regularly welcomes teams from around the world (Operation Rainbow Canada, IMPACT, Chinese University of Hong Kong etc etc ). Operation FIRST was founded by Dr Nous Sarom in conjunction with Rose Charities in 2005. Unlike some other 'pirate' facilities in the country  it is a proper Cambodian Ministry of Health Center and so supports the drive for national standards, programs and protocols
