Every mother and child deserves safe care and a healthy start.

Mary Begg Health Services has officially opened a Mother & Child Health Clinic in Ndola — a powerful milestone in strengthening maternal and paediatric healthcare in Zambia.

Why This Matters

Behind every healthy child and safe delivery, there is highly skilled and experienced professionals providing high quality standard of care.

Zambia, like many growing nations, continues to prioritize maternal and child health as a cornerstone of community development.

In alignment with these goals, Mary Begg Health Services prioritises are: immunisation, improved nutrition, and access to quality healthcare.

• Target 3.1: Reducing maternal mortality to safe levels through skilled care, safe delivery services, and emergency obstetric support.

• Target 3.2: Ending preventable deaths of newborns and children under five through immunisation, improved nutrition, and access to quality healthcare.

• Target 3.7: Ensuring universal access to sexual and reproductive health services, empowering women through family planning and health education.

• Target 3.8: Advancing universal health coverage so mothers and children can receive essential healthcare without financial hardship.

In this way, they are, as a facility, actively contributing to the SDG 3 goals adopted by the United Nations in 2015 under the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development – Good Health and Well-Being, recognising that supporting mothers and children lays the foundation for stronger, healthier, and more resilient communities.

Through this new venture, MBHS committs to strengthening community wellbeing, while directly contributing to sustainable national health outcomes.
