Introduction
Key considerations for the provision of safe delivery and postnatal services in the context of the Ebola outbreak
Identify, train, equip and incentivize health care workers including CHWs to provide priority lifesaving maternal and newborn interventions in the context of Ebola.
• Through functioning health facilities, CHWs, community volunteers and community leaders distribute Clean and safe Delivery Kits and Newborn kits to all pregnant women and birth attendants (see Annex 1 for contents of the kits). (...) If immediate referral is not possible, the woman should be placed in an isolation area and all community and health care workers and caregivers should apply the use of full PPE and hand washing with soap when coming into contact with the woman until it is possible to transfer her.
• In cases where delivery is imminent at home, CHWs and birth attendants who have been trained on the use of both the clean and safe delivery kit and the newborn kit should support the women. (...) • Policy: Define the following policies in settings where they do not exist:
– Misoprostol administration by CHWs after home delivery
– Chlorhexidine use by mothers for community-based cord care
– Distribution of PPEs to CHWs for management of imminent home deliveries among Ebola symptomatic women
• Training: – Train and support health workers and CHWs in the use of the clean and safe delivery kits and caring for the newborn, particularly thermal control, cord care, and early initiation and continued breastfeeding.
– Train CHWs, midwives and families in the recognition, referral and follow-up of all postnatal complications.
– Train all health workers and families in the recognition of the signs and symptoms of Ebola.
• Provision of kits: Set up a functioning distribution and monitoring system to avoid stock-outs.
• Incentives: Provide incentives to health care workers and CHWs to ensure the continuous provision of essential health services at the primary health care and community level.
• Personal Protective Equipment: All health workers should be provided with PPE and

The set included 5 pads and 2
inserts, both washable and reusable. A CARE
survey performed revealed 94% of adolescent
female students continued to regularly use the
reusable kits with 78% finding them easy to wash
and 84% finding them sufficiently thick.
(...) Therefore, MoET used the
distribution as an opportunity to ensure everyone
understood the use of all items in the kits,
including the menstruation items. This was done
in partnership with Mamma’s Laef, the same

conducted awareness for CARE during the
