Special health benefits to women on Mother’s & Child’s Days

22-3-2016

The health minister Wael Abou Faoor announced yesterday during a joint press conference with Miss Lebanon, Valerie Abu Shaqra, a batch of health benefits for Mother and Child on their Day in response to the Beauty Queen’s initiative. The latter has appealed to every mother on the Lebanese territory to pay a visit to the nearest primary health care unit to do the necessary cardiovascular tests. She pointed out that her call comes as a gift for the children on their Day, March 19th, coinciding with the mothers’ medical tests. This includes the provision of free vaccines at above centers in the period between March 21-25. In the same vein, the head of the Primary Health Care Department at the Health Ministry, Randa Hamadeh, clarified that similar centers across Lebanon, with financial support from Miss Lebanon, shall receive mothers to the same effect.
