Carlos has been working at Nuevo Trujillo’s medical post for 12 years. The town’s particular geography and the isolation that results from it has often made his job very difficult. Connectivity had always been a vital necessity. Before new roads were enabled and phone lines were available, when someone had an emergency a loudspeaker was used to summon the people and to ask for help. A stretcher was used to carry the patient, and the volunteers had to walk a long way to Puerto Bermúdez in order to call an ambulance that arrived from Juanqui, the nearest city. Complications arose along the way, and sometimes they just arrived too late. But now, when an ambulance is needed, Carlos can call directly from Nuevo Trujillo, speeding up the whole process.
