Provision of Life Saving Health Care Services in Al Mukha district, Taiz Governorate (Parameter 1) IMC proposes to maintain the gains made under the second allocation 2019 Yemen Humanitarian Fund awarded project, entitled: “Provision of Emergency Health Services in Lahj and Taiz.” With the support of the first allocation Yemen Humanitarian Funds, IMC will extend life-saving health care services within the western coast of Taiz governorate in Al Mukha district to the currently supported six health facilities: Al Sahera, Al Zohari, Kodiha, Nobat Al Ameri, Yakhtal and Hassi Salem health units. Complementary to the support extended to the health facilities, IMC will deploy one mobile team to at least six out of the 84 IDP locations in Al Mukha District. Targeted locations include: Al Qahira, Al Hali, Al Rowais, Al Oshaira, Al Zahira, and Al Shatheli. The target population will include a total of 18,058 host and 6,535 IDP individuals disaggregated as follows: 3,443 men, 3,935 women, 8,863 boys, 8,362 girls. These communities continue to be considered as hard-to-reach areas due to the security risks such as mine fields, proximity to frontlines and distance from basic services. Furthermore, the governorate of Taiz ranks as the third highest governorate with COVID-19 confirmed cases, adding to the vulnerability of the targeted communities. With the fragmented state of the health care system and scarcity of facilities, with only 2 operational COVID-19 facilities, the health system cannot manage an outbreak of coronavirus cases. The project will support the 6 health units and 1 mobile health team with health hazard allowances to health care workers, in accordance to the health cluster grid, essential medical commodities for the diagnosis and management of common morbidities which includes communicable and non-communicable diseases and non-medical commodities that includes stationary and cleaning materials. The services to be supported include general medical consultations for communicable and non-communicable diseases, provision of essential medications, maternal and childcare through the services of trained nurses and midwives, IMCI, disease surveillance including COVID-19 screening for all beneficiaries utilizing the services in the clinic, infection prevention and control and community health promotion. These services will complement the services supported through the nutrition project which includes nutrition screening for infants and young children as well as pregnant and lactating women, growth monitoring and community management of acute malnutrition. Other services which will be complemented are the EPI services delivered through the GHO, and emergency referrals of critically ill patients which is supported by IMC through another project. IMC have coordinated with the health cluster and the respective local health representatives to ensure that support is not duplicated, and the most vulnerable populations are provided with the needed services complementing nutrition services offered through a separate nutrition project.
