Child Case Management Reponses During Covid-19 Pandemic

Phalla Menglong, boy, 9, a sponsored child who infected Covid-19, lives in Alongkong Village, Sangkat Preysar, Khan Dangkor, Phnom Penh capital city. To support him, GN Cambodia staff worked with Community Mobilizers, Community Development Committee, and local authorities to respond to his urgent needs. The staff consulted and provided his families during household lockdown while they could not go outside for a 14-day quarantine. In the hard situation, GN Cambodia delivered the family food such as rice (25kg), some ingredients, and COVID-19 materials (1 box of masks, 2 alcohol gel sanitizers).

On the other hand, we closely followed up on their health even though they recovered from the disease by home visits and telephone calls on a weekly basis. “I’m very delighted to receive some materials and consultation, and thank you to GN Cambodia for kind consideration during this situation.”, said Menglong. He added, “Now I am able to study and play with my friends as usual”.
