Mobile medicine
S
arubai Salve goes to work twice a day. She leaves her
home once at nine o'clock in the morning and then
again at six o'clock in the evening to visit people in her
village of Jawalke. The village has about 240 families
and, with another woman called Babai Sathe, Sarubai is
responsible for the health of the village. The women visit
pregnant women and give medicine to some of the older
people. Today they are visiting their first patient. Rani Kale
doesn't come from Jawalke. She lives about an hour away but
her village doesn't have anyone like Sarubai to help mothers-
to-be. Sarubai is checking Rani and she is worried about the
position of the baby. Rani might need to go to hospital.
Half an hour later, Sarubai and Babai visit another mother
with a three-month-old baby. While they are checking the
baby, Sarubai also gives the mother advice on nutrition and
vaccinations. Jawalke is a very different place because of the
two women. They regularly deliver babies and continue to
help as the child grows up. There is a shortage of doctors in
this region, so village health workers are important because
they can give preventative medicine and advice about health.
New health workers go for two weeks of intensive training
and then they receive ongoing training. A mobile team visits
Jawalke once a week. The team includes a nurse and a doctor.
The mobile team meets with Sarubai and they look at any
of her patients with serious medical problems. The health
workers are an important connection between the mobile
team and the local people. Currently there are 300 village
health workers in the region and the number is growing.

2 b Paddleboard racing
Reading adventure sport
1 Read the article. Are the sentences true (T)
or false (F)?
1 Paddleboarding is a combination of two
other sports.
2 Competitive paddleboard races are usually
on rivers.
3 The most important race is on the ocean
around Hawaii.
4 Jamie Mitchell completed the Molokai to Oahu
race in the fastest time.
5 The prize money for first place in the race is
three thousand dollars.
6 The writer says paddleboard racing is a
famous sport.
7 Jamie is a full-time professional sportsperson.
8 Jamie loves the sport and visiting Hawaii
with friends.
■
Paddleboarding is a mixture of two water sports,
surfing and rowing. Paddleboarding uses a surfboard
and the paddleboarder ‘rows’ the board. However,
there are two big differences. In surfing, you have
to stand but in paddleboarding you can kneel or
lie on the board. In rowing you use oars, but in
paddleboarding you mustn’t use oars. You have to
use your arms to move along.
You can do the sport on rivers, but most of the big
competitions are on the ocean. The main competition
for paddleboarders is the annual race from Molokai
to Oahu in Hawaii. The distance is 50 kilometres. On
a good day, with the right kind of waves, you don’t
always have to use your arms because the water
carries you some of the way but, on a bad day, you
are using your arms the whole way.
Competitors must be very strong and athletic. One
of paddleboarding’s most famous competitors is
the Australian Damie Mitchell. Not many people
know about Mitchell, but he is the eight-time
winner of the Molokai to Oahu race. He also has the
record time of four hours, fifty-eight minutes and
twenty-five seconds.
Because the sport isn’t well known, the prize money
for winning paddleboarding is small compared to
other sports - Mitchell only received $3,000 for
winning the race this year. But Mitchell obviously
loves the sport because he trains two or three times
a day, six days a week, for the four months before
the race. At the same time, he has to earn money,
so he does anything including working in bars or
building work.
So how does Mitchell stay interested in such a sport?
He says, ‘I just love paddleboarding. It’s not about
winning. It’s about coming to Hawaii and spending
time with my good friends in a place that I love.’
