Zonta Birthing Kits
What is a Birthing Kit?
Zonta Birthing Kits provide for a clean and safe birthing environment for women without access to professional medical care. The lives of many women and babies in third world countries have been saved through this project. The kits are basic with 6 items. A plastic sheet, soap, 2 gloves, sterile scalpel blade, 3 cords and 5 gauze squares. These items are assembled into a small bag at an annual Assembly Day. The birthing kit addresses the 6 aspects needed for a safe delivery. Clean birth site, clean hands, clean ties, clean cut, clean eyes, clean umbilical cord and clean perineum. Please visit Birthing Kit Foundation Australia to learn more. |
