Conexus MedStaff is proud to announce its support for the expansion of Village HopeCore International’s Maternal Child Health Clinic program into Tharaka South sub-county, Kenya. Funding for the partnership, as part of the Conexus Global Impact program, reflects a commitment to advancing healthcare access and being part of the solution for critical global health challenges.
Village HopeCore’s Maternal Child Health Clinics are dedicated to ensuring every child and mother has access to life-saving interventions. By expanding into Tharaka South sub-county, the program will reach thousands more women and children in Kenya with life-saving resources such as prenatal care, nutritional support, immunizations, and health education.
“By supporting Village HopeCore to expand the mobile Maternal Child Health Clinic to cover an additional 27 Community Units in the Tharaka South sub-county, we hope more individuals will access medical services vital in safeguarding communities, particularly children, from preventable diseases, improve wellbeing and save lives.” said Andrew Moreton, CEO of Conexus MedStaff.
The expansion addresses urgent healthcare needs in Tharaka South, where challenges to accessing medical services poses significant health risks for pregnant women and children in their first 1,000 days of life. The program will enhance healthcare delivery through new mobile clinics, local health worker training, and comprehensive health interventions designed to reduce maternal and child mortality rates.
“Partnering with Conexus MedStaff allows us to work together to address the health disparities that have long affected our communities, particularly in accessing Maternal and Child Health services,” said Dr. Mutuma Njagi, Public Health Program Manager, Village HopeCore International.” We affirm our commitment to this partnership and to making a long-lasting impact on the health and well-being of the people we serve.”
