AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Health Policy Push: Barbados’ Breastfeeding and Child Nutrition Foundation is calling for an urgent national breastfeeding policy, while QEH staff say more mothers are stopping early due to work pressure and limited workplace support. Workplace Support: Nurses and midwives at QEH’s Breastfeeding Awareness Month pop-up urged employers to provide safe spaces for pumping and storage, noting many women return to work around three months and may switch to formula when facilities aren’t available. Local Hospital Update: U.S. Embassy officials visited the Joseph N. France General Hospital in St. Kitts and Nevis, praising improvements and reviewing services for visitors needing care. Community Health Access: A Church of God in Christ back-to-school outreach in Barbados provided health screenings and vaccinations for nearly 300 children, in partnership with the Ministry of Health and Wellness and the One Family Programme. School Support Through Sport: The Barbados Hotel and Tourism Association launched an Adopt-A-School futsal tournament aiming to raise at least $50,000 for school needs, including nutrition and wellness-related upgrades. Public Health & Safety: A multi-ministry crackdown temporarily shut down Two Sons Funeral Home for six weeks amid complaints about formaldehyde smells and concerns about embalming chemicals. Cancer Loss: Trashaun Atwell, 14, died after a cancer battle with acute myeloid leukaemia, following a bone marrow transplant wait at QEH. Health Tech Research: A new underwater robot approach can estimate divers’ breathing rates by tracking bubbles, offering potential safety benefits for dive emergencies.
