Maternity Ward for HIV+ Women in Kamenge, Burundi
Organization information
Friends Women's Association
Location: Bujumbura, Burundi
Summary
Ntaseka's Clinic has found that 7% of women tested at the clinic are HIV+. Many of these women will have children which currently are being delivered at home with a great possibility of transmitting the HIV status to their newborn babies. With the addition of the maternity ward these women who will have attended the clinic for pre-natal care will be able to deliver in the new maternity ward where they will receive properly medical care so that the do not convey their status to their child.
