YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 13, NOYAN TAPAN. The successful completion of the
USAID-financed Project NOVA was marked on November 12. Thanks to the
project launched in 2004, the quality of obstetrical services has
been improved in Armenia in the past 5 years, with the main emphasis
on safe reproduction in rural areas and higher quality of and access
to maternal and child healthcare services.
"In the fields related to the project, patients' satisfaction at the
level of services has risen, and there has also been a decline in the
number of complications among women and infants during childbirth and
in the postnatal period in Armenia. The project contributed to a growth
in the number of births and also to a decline in the number of women
applying for an abortion," Director of Project NOVA Inna Sacci said.

of the project, noting that it has enabled to deal with the problems
at community health centers. He expressed a hope that new projects
