 May 19th Provence Hospital, Kushma; In a powerful testament to dedication and teamwork, a 25-year-old woman’s life was saved by a swift and skilled medical response after she was rushed to the hospital with heavy vaginal bleeding late into her pregnancy.

Despite being in a resource-limited setting with financial constraints that ruled out referral to a higher center, the hospital staff committed to managing the situation on-site. Within minutes, an e...
