As Guyana battles the issue of maternal deaths in the country,NFL Jerseys Cheap, Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) Country Representative,Authentic NFL Jerseys, Dr. Kathleen Israel, has said that the majority of maternal deaths occur in health facilities.This, she said, obviously questions the quality of care that pregnant women receive in the hospitals.Dr. Israel made this comment during her address to the Emergency Obstetrics and Newborn Care (EmONC) Needs Assessment training workshop for data collection on Monday.This workshop will last for a week at the Tower Hotel, and is being held in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, the Bureau of Statistics and the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA).The training programme targets interviewers who will do a survey on the emergence of obstetrics and neonatal care services available within the health sector countrywide.In this regard, Dr. Israel noted the data collected would significantly assist the various partners in effectively tackling the issue.“I am very heartened by this survey that is going to be done…it will assess the elements that are in place in the various health facilities to determine adequacy to address the needs of women and children so that we can identify more accurately where we should target our responses,” the PAHO representative said.At the same time, Dr. Israel underscored the difficulties faced in reaching out to communities in remote areas.“We believe in equity and every woman should be given the kind of care that is available in Georgetown and it should also be available in the remote areas of region one…so we have to find ways and means of doing that.”However, she added that it could only be done if they have the right kind of data necessary.
