Medicinal Oxygen Re-Supply

Following COVID-19, the need for reliable medicinal oxygen supply in provincial health facilities has become even more critical.

In Vanuatu, there are currently only two oxygen plants serving the entire country – one at Port Vila Hospital and another at Northern Hospital in Luganville. Other hospitals and health centers are dependent on these two sources, with deliveries often delayed due to transportation challenges.

A commercial option is available in Port Vila, but at a very high cost to the Ministry of Health.

With HELPR-1’s dependable schedule to the outer islands, it is ideally positioned to support these facilities by delivering essential medicinal oxygen. Equipped with an onboard oxygen concentrator HELPR-1 has successfully resupplied hospitals in Penama and Tafea Provinces.

We are committed to extending this vital service to other provinces according to its schedule.
