  • Final Report to Dining for Women for Their February 2013 Grant
    Midwives For Haiti FINAL REPORT TO DINING FOR WOMEN FOR THEIR FEBRUARY 2013 GRANT Organization Name: Midwives For Haiti Program Title: Midwives Save Lives: Reducing Maternal and Neonatal Mortality in Haiti by Training Skilled Birth Attendants Grant Amount: $50,000 Contact Person: Stephen Eads, MD Address: 500 Lake Caroline Dr., Ruther Glen, VA 22546 Program Objectives The mission of Midwives For Haiti is the reduction of maternal and neonatal mortality in Haiti. This is accomplished by training Haitians as skilled birth attendants and improving access for Haitian women to prenatal, intrapartum and postpartum care. The Dining For Women grant provided financial support for our skilled birth attendant school in Hinche, Haiti and support for our mobile prenatal clinic that serves women in 16 rural villages on Haiti’s central plateau. Graduates of the 10 month course have the skills needed to provide care to pregnant women throughout their pregnancies. They attain the skills enumerated by the World Health Organization as the core abilities of skilled birth attendants. Among these skills are the ability to prevent and/or manage the common life- threatening complications of pregnancy; pre-eclampsia/eclampsia, postpartum hemorrhage, infection and obstructed labor. The mobile prenatal clinic provides care to over 400 women each month. The women receive vitamins, iron supplements and medication for intestinal parasites. They are tested for sexually transmitted diseases and examined for pregnancy complications. Women with high-risk problems are referred to physicians or transported to the hospital. Program Achievements 23 Haitian students graduated from our skilled birth attendant school in October 2013. The table below shows the number of graduates from each class since 2006 and the number employed in hospitals, clinics and birth centers in Haiti.

    Information bulletin Haiti: Civil Unrest Information Bulletin N° 1 Date of issue: February 17, 2019 Date of disaster: Point of contact: Raphael HAMOIR, Operations Manager, Ongoing since July 6 2018 [email protected] N° of National Societies currently involved in the operation (if available and relevant): Red Cross Movement actors currently involved in the operation: The Haitian Red Cross, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), International Committee of Red Cross (ICRC), and Partner National Societies (PNSs) such as American Red Cross, the Canadian Red Cross Society, German Red Cross, Swiss Red Cross, French Red Cross, Spanish Red Cross and Netherlands Red Cross. This bulletin is being issued for information only; it reflects the current situation and details available at this time. The situation Since January 2019 large protests has taken place in the capital and other cities of Haiti leaving people dead and several injured. The large socio-economic crisis and the devaluation of the local currency against the US dollar and the resulting increase in prices have fuelled public discontent. These social protests involved in some cases a high degree of violence, including attacks to public buildings and private companies, burning of gas stations and banks and people injured and killed. Police are deployed to in key locations to try to control the situation. Some supermarkets are still open for a few hours per day but there are big concerns about the evolution of the situation, all schools and universities are closed. Many key streets of the capital and other cities have been blocked.
