In December last year Trust for Social Achivement in partnership with the Health and Social Development Foundation opened the first medical center in the history of Fakulteta neighborhood to provide prenatal care. At the time two doctors started examining pregnant women, young mothers and babies. In March we successfully added one more doctor licensed by the Regional Health Inspectorate and presently, two pediatricians and one gynecologist are working on monthly shifts. The center is fully operational after successfully passing the control visit of the National Health Insurance Fund.
Besides providing the patients with free medical checkups, one of the doctors also works on preventing unplanned pregnancy by inserting contraceptive coils.
We estimated that the health center will be able to provide care to about 250 mothers and infants in the coming year, and now are happy to inform you that just for the first three months of its existence, 96 young mothers, pregnant women and babies were examined already there.
The medical center isoperating at full speed and therefore still needs YOUR support to cover supplies and maintenance of the premises.
Together we will make sure that no child or pregnant woman is left behind!
