This has led to reliance on contaminated springs and the spread of waterborne diseases. Inadequate sanitation facilities have resulted in open defecation practices, exacerbating health risks.lt/pgtltpgtTYF's Rapid Needs Assessment (RNA), conducted in collaboration with MOPHP, Ibb's GHO, and Al Qafr's DHO, identified significant gaps in healthcare services, particularly in comprehensive emergency obstetric and newborn (CEmONC) services at the Rehab Hospital. The proposed intervention strategy includes strengthening healthcare services, scaling up mental health and psychosocial support, rehabilitating water systems, improving sanitation facilities, and extending the water network. This coordinated approach aims to maximize impact and improve lives. CEmONC services are crucial in addressing the urgent healthcare needs of women and newborns in Al Qafr district and the surrounding areas. The high demand for CEmONC services in Al Qafr district, is due to the occurrence of complicated emergency cases. These cases can involve life-threatening conditions during pregnancy, childbirth, or the immediate postpartum period (e.g., severe hemorrhage, obstructed labor, eclampsia, and neonatal resuscitation). Managing these cases requires a multidisciplinary approach involving skilled healthcare professionals, specialized equipments, and access to blood transfusion services. Therefore, Rehab hospital serves as an inter-district hospital catering to the needs of the most affected individuals in Al Qafr, Hubaish, Yareem, Ans, and Al Makhader districts. lt/pgt ltpgtltbrgtThe project will directly benefit 60,764 individuals within the host communities, including 19,750 men, 21,176 women, 9,720 boys, and 10,118 girls.
