HEALTH CARE

Health care

Deficient sanitation systems, poor nutrition, and inadequate health services have pushed Haiti to the bottom of the World Bank’s rankings of health indicators. According to the United Nations World Food Program, 80 percent of Haiti’s population lives below the poverty line. Consequently, malnutrition is a significant problem. Half the population can be categorized as “food insecure,” and half of all Haitian children are undersized as a result of malnutrition. Less than half the population has access to clean aedrinking water, a rate that compares poorly even with other less-developed nations. Haiti’s healthy life expectancy at birth is only 44 years. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that only 43 percent of the target population receives the recommended immunizations.[1]

In terms of health care spending, Haiti ranks last in the western hemisphere. Economic instability has limited any growth in this area. Per capita, Haiti spends about US$83 annually on health care. There are 25 physicians and 11 nurses per 100,000 population. Only one-fourth of births are attended by a skilled health professional. Most rural areas have no access to health care, making residents susceptible to otherwise treatable diseases. In 2003, for example, the WHO confirmed an outbreak of typhoid fever in Haiti that, because of a lack of access to doctors and safe water, led to dozens of deaths.

Haiti has the highest incidence of human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) outside of Africa. Sex tourism and lack of health education led to the beginning of the epidemic in the early 1980s. Estimates vary, but the United Nations projects the national prevalence rate to be 4.5 percent of the population. Other estimates place the rate as high as 12 percent in the urban population and 5 percent in rural regions. Annually, 5,000 Haitian babies are born infected with the AIDS virus. The disease causes a fifth of all infant deaths and has orphaned 200,000 children.

New Deal For Haiti's Solution for healthcare

Mobile Healthcare will be a traveling healthcare service for rural Haiti. Although the use of mobile clinics for charitable clinics is not a new idea, mobile clinic is unique in being the world’s first social venture aimed at creating a sustainable services that will provide would provide rural resident, high quality, and affordable medical care to villagers in Haiti.

Our mission is to solve the problem of the last mile of healthcare for millions of people living in rural Haiti by providing access to affordable healthcare services. We aim to create a venture out of serving the bottom of the pyramid, that will sustain itself without relying on the charity of others and missionaries across the country. If we can solve this problem for Haiti, we may be able to solve it for the world. Our focus is on prevention, early detection and first-line treatment using globally accepted standards.

Should our model succeed, our goal is to create the world’s largest mobile medical healthcare network that will bring thousands of doctors to millions of villagers around the country, and thereby preventing unnecessary pain and suffering. In addition, in this process of providing healthcare services, we hope to become a trusted source of information for primary health indicators and metrics.

Under my leadership I will seeks to continuously improve health care for the public, in collaboration with other countries, by evaluating health care organizations and inspiring them to excel in providing safe and effective care of the highest quality and value. An independent, not-for-profit organization will be created to evaluate and accrediting body in health care facilities around the country.

The Port-au-prince Office will be the healthcare reform’s primary interface with government agencies and with Congress, seeking and maintaining partnerships with the government that will improve the quality of health care for all Haitians, and working with my government on legislation involving the quality and safety of health care.

Healthcare education. (Prevention)

Train doctors and other health professionals to meet the professional gaps.

Healthcare reform standards will address the Hospital’s level of performance in key functional areas, such as patient rights, patient treatment, medication safety and infection control. The standards focus on setting expectations for the hospital’s actual performance and for assessing its ability to provide safe, high quality care. Standards set forth performance expectations for activities that affect the safety and quality of patient care.

If hospitals and clinics does the right things and does them well, there is a strong likelihood that its patients will experience good outcomes. The healthcare reform will develops its standards in consultation with health care experts, providers, measurement experts, purchasers, and consumers.

integrates outcomes and other performance measurement data into the accreditation process. Performance measures are essential to the credibility of any modern evaluation activity for health care organizations. They supplement and help guide the standards-based survey process by providing a more targeted basis for the regular accreditation survey, for continuously monitoring actual performance, and for guiding and stimulating continuous improvement in health care organizations.
