Of all the training, Yan said emergency rescue was the most crucial and impressive.

"The knowledge of emergency rescue in a narrow alley is important, so all the center's 21 workers were required to get instruction and participate in drills," she said.

The team also donated a lot of medical equipment to the center, along with related training. Echocardiography was covered, as well as fetal heart monitoring.

Over the two years, by making home visits, the Tibet-Aid medical team has gained many friends in the surrounding communities.

"Every time when we visit Tsamla, an old Tibetan woman who is very friendly gives us Tibetan butter tea and candies," Yan said.

"I don't know quite how to describe the relationship, except to say that this is what we call real love."
