Ensure Safe Motherhood for Women in Rural Nepal
Organization information
One Heart Worldwide
Location: San Francisco, United States of America
Summary
Nepal has incredibly high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality resulting from preventable issues such as severe bleeding, infections, high blood pressure, birth asphyxia (lack of oxygen at birth), and complications related to preterm birth. One Heart Worldwide is addressing these high rates of mortality by creating a "Network of Safety" around pregnant women and their newborns to combat these very preventable causes through the training of skilled professionals and facility upgrades.
