Ep.25: Breaking Barriers, Building Health: Hoa’s mission to empower communities

One of the myths about healthcare is that it is only about what happens in the hospital. Hoa's story highlights that you don't need to be a doctor to improve health outcomes - you just need to care.

This episode follows, Hoa, a Health and Support officer in the Community Empowerment and Development (CED) team at NRCH.  We follow her as she co-designs health programs with her community, and collaborates with local organisations to achieve greater health outcomes for everyone.
