ALMC Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in Arusha, Tanzania
Dutch Flower Foundation supports the ALMC Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in Arusha, Tanzania for several years.
Via Boudewijn Rip we came in contact with Stephen J. Swanson (Medical Director of the NICU).
After a presentation of him and a tour in the NICU, we where convinced to support the organisation.
Dr Swanson: In 2020 the NICU cared for 325 NICU babies. With a 93% survival rate using only appropriate technology for Tanzania and the basics of respiratory support, thermoregulation, and feeding. 83% of babies born under 1500 kg survived in our NICU- babies that would be unlikely to survive in other hospitals. Dr Swanson shares his knowledge and experiences throughout the south and east of Africa.
Dutch Flower Foundation is proud and thankful to support the NICU.
