Kids Operating Rooms Saving Lives Globally

from Edinburgh News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Garreth and Nicola Wood are revolutionizing global pediatric care—one operating room at a time. Since launching Kids Operating Room in 2018, they’ve shipped over 130 fully equipped children’s ORs to nearly 40 countries, including Ethiopia, Tanzania, South Sudan, and Ukraine. Beyond hardware, they’re building local expertise by training dozens of pediatric surgeons, nurses, and engineers. Innovations like solar-powered ORs and NASA-backed oxygen tech tackle real-world challenges. Their tireless work earned them honorary doctorates from the University of Dundee—the very city powering their mission to save kids’ lives worldwide.
