COPE remodel

I should have taken before pictures of the COPE clinic space in order to allow for an accurate comparison. But alas, hindsight. So, instead, I will just share photos of the new building and all that has changed over the last three months (only two months behind schedule).

The clinic area. It's a great space and much more open now that we've removed the parallel bars and old junk just laying around. The issue is that we pay staff to participate in the clinic (so it ends up being about 10-15 staff members and there is hardly room for patients).

The modification room. Vastly improved! We put in the floor recession and grate to allow for easier cleaning. The plaster gets swept into the grate and not tracked around the clinical area.

The Gait training and patient waiting area. My office is just off to the left out of the picture. A great space for patients and sheltered away from the sun and rain.

The Gait training ramp and stairs. I feel like pouring cement like this can't be the best construction method but all construction in Laos is based on cement....guess it's cheap.

All in all, the remodel has been a success. I'm still trying to get the staff to get organized and it seems to be improving, slowly.
