New antenatal ward opens at MMH

A lot of work by MMH management and staff, and support from three partners culminated in the opening of a new ward at MMH on monday 13th March. With support from Camellia plc and the Camellia Foundation (the holding company of Eastern Produce Malawi’s Mulanje tea estates) , the English Reformed Church Amsterdam with dutch organisation Wilde Ganzen, and Global Affairs Canada through Presbyterian World Service and Development we have built, furnished and equipped a new 20 bed antenatal ward, scanning room and clinic area for pregnant women.

The ward was opened by Gideon Mothisa from Eastern Produce Malawi, and dedicated by Rev Moyenda Kanjerwa, Deputy General Secretary of CCAP Blantyre Synod. Much singing and dancing followed!

From L to R, Rev Dr Billy Gama, Head of Station, Maggie Maruwo, HRMO, Tabu Gonani, Matron, Dr Clare Shakespeare, Mr Gideon Mothisa, TA Chikumbu, Rev Kanjerwa and nurses from the College and hospital.
