Health Has A New Home
In Afghanistan, the risk of dying due to pregnancy and childbirth is among the highest in the world. But many of the causes of these maternal deaths are preventable, when women have access to timely, professional care.
For half a million people living in the rural province of Bamyan, a new hospital means new hope. Health Has A New Home follows Dr. Bobani as she and her team move from an old, cramped facility to a brand new maternity ward... and take on the 12 women who arrive in labour on the first day the new ward is up and running.
