For
the moment Rev. Siranon Sanpetch is the director with Mr. Adirak
Phothong as the coordinator of the sub-committee for health
pastoral care. The work begins by going around the Catholic
communities to collect information and then organize meetings
in order to group up medical personnel in the area and enable
them to carry out activities by themselves. |
At
the initial attempt they made visits to patients at large, HIV/AIDS
patients, the elderly at home or at the hospital. This data
collection is limited to 2 months. With the information and
data collected they will use it as a basis in organizing activities
which will develop the medical personnel in line with the pastoral
plan of the Chanthaburi diocese. |
