The maternal and community health center is named "Patricia" after the founder's mother, Patricia McLoughlin Nau. The PN Clinic is built thanks to the many generous gifts from family members, young children's allowances, a girl scout troop, art shows, multiple festive events, and caring people. The Ivorian Ministry of Health has also donated a percentage of the building costs. This center will ope

n in 2011 and will serve expectant mothers before, during, and after childbirth. There is also immediate care for the treatment of malaria, infections, worms, and other diseases. Clean facilities, properly trained medical staff, and post-natal healthy lifestyle planning help prevent the spread of disease and helps to reduce the mounting infant mortality rate that exists in the Ivory Coast. In addition, the center will provide access to deserved medical supplies and will surely empower the people in the community by teaching basic life skills. To accomplish this goal, the Ivory Coast Mothers and Children organization has partnered with ADER - an African organization/contractor devoted to building projects like ours and has benefitted from numerous generous US professionals who have visited the clinic to support our efforts.

Remembering great times with the children and good friends.

Our Story

The maternal and community health center is named "Patricia Nau" after the founder's mother, Patricia McLoughlin Nau. After almost 7 years of fund-raising the health center was opened in 2013 thanks to the many generous gifts from family members, young children's allowances, a girl scout troop, art shows, multiple festive events and kind people from everywhere. The pharmacy opened in 2015 and the laboratory opened in 2018.

Pre-natal care, safe childbirth and child care were minimal for mothers, newborns and vulnerable children under 5 before the clinic. Unsafe and unsanitary conditions as well as limited access to the benefits of a proper diagnosis and treatment and also poor nutrition makes life difficult for people in the region. Malaria, HIV/AIDS, infections, dehydration from diarrhea, worms and other tropical diseases including malnutrition and anemia continue to dominate.

The skilled nurse and the mid-wife live on the campus to treat 24 hour emergencies and one of our qualified doctors is usually on duty. Disease treatment and prevention techniques are valuable in helping to reduce the high infant mortality rate and for care of the sick. Most importantly, the center provides access to medical treatment for everyone who enters.
