Alfreth Salouw, A Nurse Serving in the Outermost Region
Alfreth has rendered maximum service to patients because this was what he aspired to do when he chose to become a nurse. This versatile nurse on the outermost and remote island only wants to serve.

Alfreth Salouw, 37, got a lift on the motorcycle of his peer as he left the community health center (puskesmas) of Wonreli. On his lap was a box of vaccines wrapped in his jacket to ward off the hot weather reaching 30 degrees Celsius. In this manner, he was trying to maintain the vaccines’ temperature at the standard level of 2-8 degrees Celsius.
On that Friday noon (21/4/2023), they were riding to a settlement in Wonreli village, Kisar Island, Southwest Maluku regency, Maluku. Their motorcycle halted at the house of Richard, a four-month-old baby who had not yet been immunized. Alfreth got in and gave a vaccine shot.
