Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital, presents a unique summer volunteering and good deeds program.

"እሺ ለበጎ!"

From captivating health screenings that could potentially save lives, to embarking on a mission to break records with monumental blood donations,we are leaving no stone unturned!

Our Hospital needs your support to replenish our blood supply for hematologic cancer and other patients in need. This is a chance for those who have experienced the immense gift of donated blood, and have witnessed firsthand how it saves lives, to come forward and repay that debt of gratitude. Join us on Tuesday and experience the joy of giving back to our community.

So far we have accomplished remarkeable milestones, such as providing vital medical services to over 2000 individuals at Mekedonia Home for the elderly and mentally ill, as well as over 400 individuals at Meseret Humanitarian Organization. And currently on going screening at TASH.

Aside from seeing the joy in the faces of young kids as they are surrounded by people who they aspire to be, to hearing the blessing of the elderly, our sponsors have also been very pleased as they were able to showcase their products and services from their exhibition sites.

We would like to continue sharing our gratitude to them as they have helped, and are continuing to help, us make this event as grand as possible.

Now, we are gearing up for our next milestone: organizing a grand blood donation campaign on Tuesday, August 29!

If you are interested in becoming part of this grand event through sponsorships, volunteering and in other forms please reach out to us at @samiy0

🍺Have you ever thought you could get drunk without actually drinking alcohol?

🍻It appears that a body can ferment an ingested carbohydrate by gut fungi resulting in endogenous production of ethanol.

📑The paper “Auto-Brewery Syndrome: A Schematic
for Diagnosis and Appropriate Treatment
” by Malik, Wickremesinghe and  Saleem (2021) describes about this syndrome which has been described in the medical literature for over 50 years but still remains misunderstood with limited information regarding diagnosis and treatment.

💊While prior use of antibiotics, inflammatory bowel disease and short bowel syndrome are some of the risk factors for this syndrome, people with this syndrome can have smell of an alcohol with side effects of alcohol like fatty liver, liver cirrhosis and chronic pancreatitis, not to forget psychiatric symptoms like altered mood, anxiety and depression.

Imagine getting arrested for DWI because your gut fungi and bacterias decided to produce alcohol.😁

An incredible day at Zewditu Meshesha Children and Family Charity Development Association!

We would like to thank our dedicated team of SCORP and SCOPH officials, amazing volunteers, and you, our members, for making this happen

Your unwavering support during our June hike and generous cloth donations made today possible as we donated medications, provided clothing, and conducted an impactful awareness session on Scabies and tinea infections.

Witnessing the smiles on the children's faces and the positive change we initiated together was truly inspiring.

Thank you for your unwavering support and for being the driving force behind this incredible journey! 🙌

Green hugs

🎉Exciting Announcement Alert!🎉

We are thrilled to announce an incredible collaboration between EMSA-AA, Adilas, and Tikur Anbessa College of Health Sciences, aimed at providing premium high quality white gowns for our students, staffs and TASH community in general at an exclusive discounted price of 850 birr!

But that's not all,  these gowns come with a special touch. EMSA-AA has gotten the green light from Tikur Anbessa Hospital for each white coat to proudly bear the logo of Black Lion!!

Picture yourself striding through the hallways of TASH or anywhere else, proudly donning a beautiful white coat with the Black Lion logo elegantly emblazoned on it. But wait, even if you're not part of the Black Lion community, worry not! The coats can be made without the logo as well, ensuring that everyone can benefit from this amazing offer.


👉Measurements will be taken on Tuesday, August 29!
👉Send your names HERE to be part of this.

Elizabeth Blackwell, the first woman in America to receive a medical degree, was born on February 3, 1821, near Bristol, England. After moving to America with her family in 1832, they faced financial difficulties following the death of her father in 1838. Alongside her mother and sisters, Blackwell worked as a teacher to support their needs.

Inspired by a dying friend who wished for a female physician, Blackwell decided to pursue a career in medicine. Despite the prevailing norms of the time, which excluded women from medical education, she persisted in her ambition. In 1847, Blackwell applied to medical schools in Philadelphia but faced rejection from all. However, she was ultimately admitted to Geneva College in New York, albeit mistakenly due to what was meant as a practical joke.

During her time at Geneva College, Blackwell faced discrimination and exclusion from lectures and labs. Nonetheless, she earned the respect of her professors and peers and graduated at the top of her class in 1849. She furthered her training in London and Paris hospitals, where she witnessed the importance of preventative care and hygiene practices that other doctors often neglected.

Upon returning to New York City in 1851, Blackwell encountered widespread discrimination against female physicians, resulting in limited patients and challenges in practicing in hospitals and clinics. Undeterred, she opened a small clinic to provide healthcare to impoverished women. Eventually, in 1857, she established the New York Infirmary for Women and Children with her sister Emily Blackwell and colleague Marie Zakrzewska. The infirmary not only provided medical care but also created opportunities for women physicians.

During the Civil War, Elizabeth and Emily Blackwell focused on training nurses for Union hospitals. In 1868, Elizabeth opened a medical college in New York City and appointed Emily as its head. She then returned to London permanently in 1869, where she became a professor of gynecology at the newly established London School of Medicine for Women. Additionally, Blackwell played a pivotal role in founding the National Health Society and authored notable books, including her autobiography, "Pioneer Work in Opening the Medical Profession to Women" (1895).

Elizabeth Blackwell's unwavering determination not only allowed her to overcome gender-based barriers but also paved the way for numerous women seeking careers in medicine. Her contributions to healthcare, medical education, and the advancement of women in the field continue to inspire generations of future physicians.

😇 A kind reminder about our tomorrow's grand blood donation campaign.

😇 Remember that we are doing this for mothers who are dying on their operation table, seeking blood during labor. We are also doing this for children who are suffering from cancer and need blood transfusions on a regular basis. Our brothers, sisters, fathers, and mothers cannot undergo surgery because of a lack of blood.

😇 Let’s all try to donate and motivate others to donate too.

👉You can donate at:
📌 Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital
📌 Sefere selam campus
📌 Yeka Subcity
📌 Merkato Anwar Mesjid

See you all tomorrow 🤗
