The nutrition center continues to help a steady influx of children from the Lawra District recover from malnutrition. During the month of March the center treated 3 new patients and 1 returned patient, in addition to three children who were already being treated at the beginning of the month. 6 of these children recovered enough to be discharged while one remained in treatment during the month of April. In addition, the nutrition center was the focus of the second training on the management of severe acute malnutrition, which was held at the Lawra District Hospital in April. We will soon receive information on the treatment statistics during the month of May and will be sure that share it! We are so grateful the nutrition center continues to serve as a great resource for treating malnourishment in the Lawra District.
