Thanks to a new programme of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), financed by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation, Cuamm supports a series of health staff <strong>training<\/strong>, the <strong>education<\/strong> activities of the students of the specialisation school in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, the pharmacy and its universal health care service, with a view to <strong>reinforcing<\/strong> the improvement of the care provided.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, we received a donation of sanitary material to fight and reduce infections. As CAUMM, we have also offered cleaning and<strong> waste collection<\/strong> products, increased <strong>handwashing<\/strong> <strong>points<\/strong> within the wards, and equipment such as trolleys, to deposit sterilised material\u00bb, says <strong>Claudia Mocci<\/strong>, CUAMM project leader in Freetown.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-54965\" src=\"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/2.jpeg\" width=\"700\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/2.jpeg 645w, https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/2-300x293.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/2-12x12.jpeg 12w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u00abWe are two gynaecology residents &#8211; explain <strong>Alessia Sala<\/strong> and <strong>Marina Valeriani<\/strong>, Junior Project Officer, &#8211; who arrived at the Freetown Maternal and Child Hospital a few months ago. We started working here with the other trainees and residents. It is a very different reality from what we were used to, there are so many patients, so little material available, and every day is a <strong>challenge<\/strong>! The first few weeks we just observed to understand how we could fit in, then we started the activity like everyone else. We are growing on a daily basis and trying to teach practices that residents here have no way of learning, such as <strong>ultrasound<\/strong>. For the moment, it is a challenging and difficult experience, but at the same time stimulating and educational\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p>A commitment that continues despite the difficulties, to guarantee the necessary care for African mothers and children.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-54967\" src=\"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/Post.png\" width=\"701\" height=\"587\" srcset=\"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Post.png 940w, https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Post-300x251.png 300w, https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Post-768x644.png 768w, https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Post-14x12.png 14w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 701px) 100vw, 701px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CUAMM&#8217;s commitment to the mother-and-child hospital in Freetown, narrated by Claudia Mocci, project leader, Alessia Sala and Marina Valeriani, Junior Project Officer in Gynaecology.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":54964,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_seopress_robots_follow":"","_seopress_robots_imageindex":"","_seopress_robots_snippet":"","_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_robots_breadcrumbs":"","_seopress_robots_freeze_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_custom_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_canonical":"","_seopress_social_fb_title":"","_seopress_social_fb_desc":"","_seopress_social_fb_img":"","_seopress_social_fb_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_height":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_title":"","_seopress_social_twitter_desc":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_height":0,"_seopress_redirections_value":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled_regex":"","_seopress_redirections_logged_status":"","_seopress_redirections_param":"","_seopress_redirections_type":0,"_seopress_analysis_target_kw":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1172],"tags":[1453],"argomenti":[2593],"protagonisti":[],"luoghi":[2765],"class_list":["post-54963","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-pcmh","argomenti-pcmh","luoghi-freetown"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54963","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/17"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54963"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54963\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54964"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54963"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54963"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54963"},{"taxonomy":"argomenti","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/argomenti?post=54963"},{"taxonomy":"protagonisti","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/protagonisti?post=54963"},{"taxonomy":"luoghi","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doctorswithafrica.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/luoghi?post=54963"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
