We are in urgent need of home hosting for the next ROMAC patient, 14 yr old Serah from Tanna Island, Vanuatu. She will be accompanied to Melbourne by her older sister, Reina. Home hosting is required from June 30th.
Serah will be treated for a knee problem at St Vincent’s. Private Hospital East Melbourne. The length of stay is currently unknown.
Her initial consult is on July 2nd at Nth. Melbourne and her operation on her knee will be done at St Vincent’s Private Hospital.
