Healthcare

Narú health workers are all qualified to provide basic care and education in the field, but it is our clinic that delivers expertise in child and maternal health, including:

--

Care of pregnant women and girls
Review of mother and baby in post-natal confinement
Reproductive health and screening
Family planning education and methods
Addressing the symptoms of severe malnutrition in mother and child.

--

Medical attention and support are also provided in circumstances that pose a risk for children’s wellbeing; where the mother has died in childbirth or either parent is suffering a terminal illness, for example.

Through collaborations with city-based organisations, the clinic is moreover able to source intervention for conditions such as cleft palate, spina bifida, club feet and cancers that would otherwise go untreated – particularly in the more remote communities that Narú covers.
