Congolese Delivery Room

People travel long distances to give birth in this well respected delivery room. As many as 12 babies are delivered here each week. Here's the outside.
The delivery room itself. The view is from near the door.

Here's the view from the other direction, to show you there's little else in the room. That's the doctor and a nurse to the right, there.
The washbasin.
