From The Desk of Julia Cooke Guth

Dear Friend of our Nicaragua Community,

In this season of giving, I’m asking you to step into the footprints of one of my heroes – the late Roberto Clemente…

But first, let me tell you the story of a little girl we’ll call Maria Elena…

Rosa Gonzalez yanked open the door to the Roberto Clemente – Santa Ana Health Clinic. She clasped Maria Elena –- her 7-year old daughter – in her arms. She desperately scanned the waiting area looking for someone, anyone who could help. “Mi hija. Mi hija,” she could barely choke out, her voice dry and dusty from a day and a half of traveling. “Ayuda me.” (“My baby girl. My baby girl. Help me.”) Her daughter’s lips were turning blue.   Continue>>


Surfers Save Lives – You Can Too.

Where Would You Go For Help?

Picture yourself getting a nice barrel in the Popoyo Surf Zone.  Now imagine your tube ride ended in a nasty fin cut or a broken bone – or maybe you just cannot bear another trip to the toilet with diarrhea.  Where will you go for medical help?

Popoyo Surf Zone Bracelets Save Lives Everyday

The clinic serves the Popoyo Surf Zone from Popoyo Surf Resort in the north to Hacienda Iguana in the south.  The surf camps, vacation rental operators and stores benefit from and support the bracelet program.  These high quality, glow-in-the-dark bracelets are guaranteed to make you feel good and improve your surf karma.

The time has come to expand the Clinic. We need a second building to accommodate more of local patients with a laboratory and trauma room for surgical repairs of the many accidents encountered in the area—surfing, construction, and vehicular. Of course, an expanded facility would also benefit the local population and provide a better place to deliver babies that can’t wait to get to the hospital in Rivas to be born. Please click here for more details.

We recently found that more than one life could be saved if we had an ambulance in our clinic. We are creating a specific line of donation for this matter. Please click here for more details.

There is an increase in accidents in the area due to increase in construction, surfing, and vehicles--including the newest form of transportation, motorcycles.  Most accidents can be treated at the Clinic and sent home.  However, there are a number that must me sent to the Rivas Hospital or taken to Managua for specialty care and we do not have an ambulance.  Without a vehicle at the Clinic, we must rely on public transportation or request help from somebody in the road. Please help us to achieve this goal.



2007 Medical Report

This year has been very busy at the Roberto Clemente-Rancho Santana Clinic as we have continued to expand and build a wonderful reputation in Nicaragua as well as in the United States! Just one year ago, the Clinic served just two local villages, Limón I and Limón II. Now, more than 6,000 people from 48 area villages up and down Nicaragua's Pacific coast benefit from Clinic services, as well as the residents of nearby Rancho Santana and other developments. Our dedicated medical staff of four led by Dr. Julio Flores is now seeing an average of more than 1,000 patients a month. Overall, the clinic served 10,170 patients in 2006, which was a 25% increase from 2005! Also, we recently went through the process of making our services available on a 24-hour/7-days-a-week basis (which is up from nine hours a day and 3-5 days/week last year).
