When good intentions in global health put patients at risk.
Any and all proceeds from this book are used to support the work of Christian Health Service Corps missionaries serving in hospitals and health programs around the world.
When Healthcare Hurts exposes the hidden dangers of short-term global health initiatives. While often well-intentioned, these projects can prioritize numbers over safety, sometimes leading to tragic outcomes—including preventable patient deaths. Drawing on documented cases, research gaps, and the lack of accountability in global health missions, this book raises urgent questions about patient safety, community impact, and ethical responsibility. By examining both high-profile scandals and systemic failures, it challenges readers to reconsider how healthcare aid is delivered—and what it truly means to help without harm.
