When it comes to #womenshealth, early intervention can be lifesaving. But in remote areas, these health services often aren’t available.
To address this, we recently organised a women's #reproductivehealth camp in remote #Nepal – screening 223 women for #cervicalcancer & common medical conditions.
We’re proud to share Adara's Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP).

Delivering quality care starts with a skilled, confident team.
Last week, Kiwoko Hospital #NICU nurses completed refresher training in neonatal #resuscitation.

That’s why we created the Adara Knowledge Centre – an online platform to share our learnings and resources with others.
We’ve added new maternity resources! Explore now: knowledgecentre.adaragroup.org/resources/?s...
