Abstract

Donna Wright, a consultant with Creative Health Care Management who has wide experience in international nursing, interviews Remi Kalnime, a nurse who cares for patients who have had Hansen's Disease, at Foubarka Leprosarium in Cameroon, Africa. They discuss the challenges these patients and their families face in dealing with the residual effects of untreated leprosy and in facing stigmatization and discrimination from their communities, within the socioeconomic context of a developing country.<br /> (© Copyright 2020 Creative Health Care Management.)
