Integrated Health Solutions
As a MedShare Integrated Health Solution, our Maternal & Child Health programming seeks to decrease global health disparities as they relate to maternal and child health before, during and after childbirth. By thoroughly assessing needs and supplementing the resources of our charitable healthcare partners, we are empowering practitioners with tools to perform earlier diagnoses, increase care utilization, and ultimately help improve maternal health outcomes.
Access to care where it is most needed
MedShare intends to improve the quality of healthcare for mothers and children in the medically-underserved communities we serve to help reduce the number of preventable deaths associated with childbirth.
Support Our ProgramsSaving the Lives of Mothers & Children
MedShare Integrated Health Solutions focus primarily on programming that supports Maternal & Child Health, providing many of the necessary medical supplies and critical equipment required for the early detection and treatment of some of the most preventable medical conditions leading to maternal and child deaths. The intention of this program is to:
- Decrease global health disparities as they relate to maternal and child health.
- Increase healthcare capacity to more effectively treat and care for more mothers and children in vulnerable communities.
- Support midwives (and other rural caregivers) by providing them with the essential medical products for a safe childbirth.
- Provide expectant mothers the medical supplies necessary for birth outside of a healthcare facility.
- Improve overall health outcomes for mothers and children
- Save lives of mothers and children in medically underserved communities.
Program Impact
Despite great progress, too many mothers and children dying — mostly from causes that could have been prevented. MedShare’s Integrated Health Solution focused on Maternal & Child Health is dedicated to helping reduce the mortality rates for mothers and their babies in medically underserved communities around the world. And we are driven by the significant impact we have already made alongside our collaborative partners in countries like Nigeria, Nicaragua, Cote d’Ivoire, and in free and safety net clinics in the U.S.
