It is located in a small town in Enugu State in the southeast of Nigeria and provides orthopaedic surgery and medical rehabilitation. Some children are integrated into regular schools during their rehabilitation period. In addition to the orthopaedic outreach from Mkar, the ophthalmologist from Mkar Eye Department visits the facility for medical eye care services.
