Recent international studies on neonatal healthcare bear evidence that the availability of state-of-the-art equipment and access to professional treatment are essential in saving the lives of premature, low birth-weight infants. The number of children saved is the best testament to the success of the project launched in 2008 owing to the cooperation between VivaCell-MTS and “BirthLink” NGO.
 
Serob’s birth was unexpected for the family that had moved to Pemzashen from Yerevan over four years ago. The difficulties the family had to cope with are left in the past. Now the family is waiting for the birth of their second child. As compared to the past, there is noticeable progress also in terms of complicated cases local healthcare specialists are able to deal with.
 
The program on improving the neonatal care in Armenia launched at the Scientific Research Center on Healthcare of Mother and Child and spread on to the rest of the country. The cooperating sides have set a new challenge: bring the neonatal healthcare in Armenia to a higher level. To meet this objective, special attention should be given to engaging mothers in the healthcare process and organizing regular trainings for neonatal specialists.
