May 10th 2010 UNICEF to fund senior clinical midwife tutor at new maternity hospital
The Rose Project has been funding a senior clinical midwife tutor at Bwaila Maternity hospital for the past nine months. Rachel MacLeod has been teaching and mentoring existing staff, in an effort to address the high level of infant and maternal mortality at the hospital. Rachel is also involved in implementing the Prevention of Mother to Child HIV transmission programme which is operating at the hospital.
We are delighted to announce that UNICEF will support The Rose Project financially to continue with this initiative.
