Nigeria ranks among the nations with highest mortality rates in the world. WHO statistics stands at about 814 per 100,000 pregnancies. Similarly, a woman\u2019s chance of dying from pregnancy and childbirth in Nigeria is 1 in 13. Many of these deaths are preventable, but the coverage and quality of health care services in Nigeria continue to fail women and children. Presently, less than 20% of health facilities offer emergency obstetric care and only 35% is attended to by skilled attendants. So many woman dies, while more suffers a debilitating illness or permanent disability. Underneath the statistics lies the pain of human tragedy, for thousands of families who have lost their children and parent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to recent research, essential interventions reaching women and babies on time would have averted most of these deaths; By providing under-resourced facilities with essential services such as prenatal education, training health workers on basic lifesaving techniques and supplying Clean Birth Kits, we can save lives. Clean Birth Kits are designed to provide birth attendants with the tools they need to ensure a clean birthing environment. The Kits ensure the WHO\u2019s \u201c6 Cleans\u201d: clean hands, clean perineum, clean delivery surface, clean cord cutting implement, clean cord tying, and clean cord care. We will train health workers on basic lifesaving skills, support pregnant women with clean birth kits, deploy skilled volunteers to local facilities to provide prenatal education, support immunization services etc<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The WHO clean birth practices can substantially reduce neonatal mortality and morbidity from infection-related causes, including tetanus. This project will reach 300 women in 3 remote villages within 6 months which will significantly reduce maternal mortality in this community. We are taking one community at a time and eventually with your help the whole nation will be saved<\/p>\n\n\n\n
