Welcome!


Welcome to our blog!  We are now joining the Information Age and will keep you informed of what is happening via this blog.  We hope you will visit often and feel yourself a part of our family.

If you are new to Scheer Memorial Hospital, here is a little bit of information about us.

In the 1950s, when Nepal opened its doors to the outside world, Dr. Stanley and Raylene Sturges and their children were the first Seventh-day Adventist medical missionaries to Nepal. 

 

Dr. Sturges began with a small one-room clinic, caring for the immediate and urgent medical needs of the community.  By 1960, there was a 20-bed hospital, which was the only hospital serving the half million people of Kavre District.  Mr. Clifford C. Scheer, as a memorial to his parents, Charles J. and Carolyn Scheer,

 donated most of the money used to build the hospital.  Funding for the equipment, furnishings, and medical supplies came from CARE and the Seventh-day Adventist Church. 

With continued financial assistance of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, the hospital has grown into a three-story facility licensed for 150 beds, with a full range of outpatient and inpatient services.

Some of our services include:

  • General medical and surgical in-patient care
  • Fully equipped operating theater
  • Intensive Care Unit
  • 24-hour Emergency Department and ambulance service
  • Outpatient clinics
  • Field clinics
  • School of Nursing
The support we receive through prayers and talents keep the passion for service alive at here Scheer Memorial Hospital.




Stay tuned for current news!  Take care and God bless!
