The Lake Clinic - providing primary care to isolated floating villages on the Tonle Sap Lake, Cambodia
Abstract
CONTEXT: One of the most isolated areas in South-East Asia is the Tonle Sap Lake region in Cambodia. Scattered throughout the lake are remote fishing villages that are geographically isolated from the rest of the country.
ISSUE: Receiving health care at a clinic or hospital often involves a full day of travel from the Tonle Sap Lake region, which is unaffordable for the vast majority of residents.
