Great news from Kiriwina! Thanks to the amazing collaboration between the CFK VBA network and Losuia Health Centre, a potentially risky birth situation with retained placenta was successfully averted. The quick response and efficient work of our CFK VBAs, CHP Sinaketa, and the Losuia Health Centre ensured a safe delivery for the mother and baby boy, pictured above. A big shoutout to everyone involved for their hard work and dedication!

The Caring for Kiriwina (CFK) Village Birth Attendant program provides vital maternal and newborn healthcare services to the remote communities of Kiriwina Island in Papua New Guinea. The program’s coordinator has been tirelessly working to receive birth reports, visit health villages, and distribute donations to support the CFK’s good works.

Images are of recently birthed, baby boys who were born at Losuia Health Centre between the 15th and the 18th of this month, and they received much-needed donations from the CFK program. These donations will help provide essential items like birthing kits, knitted clothing, and other necessary supplies for the new mothers and her babies.

The CFK program aims to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates by providing support to the village birth attendants and necessary supplies to remote communities where access to healthcare is limited. The program trains local women to become birth attendants who can provide essential maternal and newborn care services, including antenatal care, safe delivery, and postnatal care.

The CFK program has been successful in reducing maternal and infant mortality rates and improving the overall health outcomes of the communities it serves. The program’s coordinator is working hard to ensure that the program continues to provide essential services to the remote communities of Kiriwina Island.

Caring for Kiriwina (CFK) Village Birth Attendant program is making a significant impact on maternal and newborn health outcomes in remote communities of Kiriwina Island. The program’s coordinator, Bokawau, is doing an exceptional job of providing essential services and distributing much-needed donations to support the CFK’s good works. The CFK program is a shining example of how local solutions can provide life-saving healthcare services to those in need.
