Experts of the United Nations Children's Fund plan to hold tutorials for the Pridnestrovie's doctors of the emergency aid and perinatal care
Today in the MFA, there was a meeting between the Deputy Prime Minister on the International Cooperation – the Minister of Foreign Affairs Nina Shtanski and the UNICEF's representative in the Republic of Moldova Nune Mangasaryan.
According to Nina Shtanski, the cooperation between the UNICEF and the certain Pridnestrovie's departments makes an important contribution to the population's health promotion, especially children's health. "The projects existing today concern the perinatal care and immunization. All this would be impossible to implement here in Pridnestrovie without the international community's assistance. We also appreciate it very much that our medical institutions receive necessary modern medical equipment," the minister emphasized.
The Pridnestrovie's Healthcare Minister Tatyana Skrypnik also took part in the meeting today. She thanked the UNICEF's representatives for their comprehensive efforts made last year. "Huge work was done in 2014. It is a large-scale project in terms of the medical care organization. The medical equipment requires replacement today badly," Tatyana Skrypnik noted.
Also, it was noted at the meeting that there were all of the required conditions for the installation and maintenance of the new equipment in the republic today.
According to the UNICEF's representative in RM Nune Mangasaryan, the implementation of the healthcare projects will be continued in Pridnestrovie this year. "The main thing is that all medical institutions should be equipped properly and that high quality care should be provided by medics. That's why the training is an important aspect," Nune Mangasaryan told.
She added that several tutorials on the emergency aid, the perinatal care and the preterm born baby care are planned for this year. "These matters are important for the infant mortality rate decrease. Also, we will work with the population because it is important to keep the health level high," the UNICEF's representative concluded.
