Mogadishu(SONNA)-In a significant step in healthcare, Banadir Hospital for Maternity and Child Care has signed a cooperation and partnership agreement with Qatar Charity. This agreement aims to manage and enhance the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at the hospital, representing a new push to improve healthcare services for children in the country.

The agreement was signed today in the presence of Drs. Fartun Sharif, Director General of Banadir Hospital, and Abdul Fattah Adam Maalim, Director of Qatar Charity’s office in Somalia, along with the hospital’s medical staff and representatives from the healthcare sector.

The agreement aims to achieve a primary goal of increasing the survival rate of neonates by 10% for those born within the hospital and by 30% for those born outside the hospital. The agreement also seeks to ensure the availability of necessary resources, including medical supplies, equipment, and trained medical personnel, to improve the health services provided to children and alleviate the pressures faced by the NICU, which is one of the main departments at Banaadir Hospital.

In her speech during the signing ceremony, Drs. Fartun Sharif expressed her gratitude to Qatar Charity, stating, “Today marks a new beginning towards improving neonatal care at the hospital. The NICU is one of the most critical departments providing sensitive and essential health services, and we hope this partnership will help meet its basic needs.”

Mr. Abdul Fattah Adam, Director of Qatar Charity’s office in Somalia, expressed his happiness with the new cooperation, considering it an important achievement in supporting child health. He said, “This partnership demonstrates Qatar Charity’s commitment to supporting neonates, who require minimal healthcare services.” These statements reflect not only optimism but also a serious commitment to achieving the goals of the agreement, which aims to increase the survival rate of neonates by 10% for those born within the hospital and by 30% for those born outside the hospital.

The agreement is expected to have far-reaching positive effects on the health of neonates in Somalia. Improvements in prenatal care, emergency services, and training for doctors and nurses are anticipated to impact survival rates for neonates. Enhancing the ability to handle emergency situations during birth will provide a greater capacity to save lives and ensure the quality of healthcare.
