Every Woman Every Child
Since 2011, Israel has been pursuing better healthcare for women and their families. They have set emergency units for both infant and pregnant women in their country to minimize neonatal death rates and take care of infant injuries. Total of $100000 was the set budget for new implementation last year. With this goal, they provide care of women who have AIDS/HIV and are pregnant since it is a huge risk to take as mother delivers the baby and possibly transmit it to others. Israel believes in making the mothers safe and comfortable regarding their situation, religion, background, and/or culture. Israel is also getting hospital staff properly trained in any kind of birth emergencies to provide best quality care possible for these women.
