Celebrating World Oxygen Day

October 2, 2023 marks the first-ever World Oxygen Day. And it is a remarkable moment. In many senses, World Oxygen Day represents the cumulative efforts of the many partners, supporters, and global health practitioners who are determined to make sure that every patient receives oxygen healthcare access.?

While there are still technical challenges to deliver oxygen, Build Health International is looking ahead to enhance its support of biomedical and oxygen facilities staff throughout the globe.

To commemorate the first World Oxygen Day, we are thrilled to launch the Build Health International Oxygen Technical Support site.?

For biomedical professionals, technicians, or other supporting staff members who maintain hospital oxygen plants, we encourage you to explore the site, which includes PSA basics, tools and resources, video tutorials, future training dates, and more.?
