\"\"<\/a>Latter Day Saints Charities have donated resuscitation equipment to health facilities in the Volta Region.<\/p>\n

The equipment worth $35,000 included 400 paediatric stethoscopes, 400 infant resuscitators, 800 bulk syringes, 350 machines to help babies breathe, and action plan posters for delivery rooms.<\/p>\n

The donation was to help reduce neonatal mortality rate in the Region by at least 50 per cent by 2015.<\/p>\n

Mr. Isaac Ferguson, West Africa Programme Coordinator of Later Day Saint Charities, presented the equipment at the end of a two-day neonatal workshop for midwives organized by the group in Ho on Friday.<\/p>\n

He said Latter Day Saints Charities have trained more than 1,000 midwives in the country since 2003.<\/p>\n

Dr. Timothy Letsa, Volta Regional Director of Ghana Health Services, said neonatal resuscitation was a \u201cvery high impact cost effective intervention\u201d and commended the donors for their gesture.<\/p>\n

He noted that most neonatal deaths were related to care at the time of birth, and said the equipment would be used to prevent such deaths.<\/p>\n

Mr Joseph Amenowode, Volta Regional Minister, thanked Latter Day Saints Charities for the donation and charged participants to put skills acquired at the event to good use.<\/p>\n

He advised the midwives to take proper care of the equipment.<\/p>\n

Mr Amenowode said Government would continue to provide the necessary human and material resources to enable healthcare personnel provide quality and affordable services to the citizenry.<\/p>\n
