Seventy maternity schools operating in Armenia
YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 11, ARMENPRESS: Seventeen maternity schools have
been founded in Armenia since 2008, four of them have been established
in 2010. Two of them are functioning in Shirak, two in Lori
established within the framework of the USAID's `Mother and Child
Health Improvement' program.
Marina Vardanyan, public relations officer of the program, told
Armenpress that the maternity schools contribute to the increase of
the level of awareness about women's physical and psychological health
in pre-birth and post-birth periods. Within the framework of the
program doctor-obstetricians were trained who later conducted special
classes with future mothers.
`Mother and Child Health Improvement' program is being carried out
with the support of the RA Health Ministry, involving all the
provinces of the republic. The program will be wrapped up in late 2010
but the maternity schools established till that time will continue
functioning.
