Rural Health Care Initiative

We traveled to Tikonko Chiefdom, first to meet with RHCI at the mother's waiting center, and then traveled on a bit further to see the deep bore water well project sponsored by Bethel UMC through Mercy Outreach. Mbao-mi Mothers’ Home is a safe place for women in the villages of Tikonko who are expecting to give birth to wait out the last weeks, rather than trying to reach a birth centre once they are in labor.  

HCW has been brokering collaborations between Mercy and RHCI for about a year, and this meeting was the first of what is hoped will be many new collaborative health initiatives between the two provider organizations, including nutrition, maternal health, and prenatal care.
