Last update: 11 hours ago

Severe Infection Care Training: PAHO/WHO and Ross University School of Medicine ran a simulation-based workshop for about 25 health professionals from seven Eastern Caribbean countries, including St. Vincent and the Grenadines, to strengthen critical care skills for severe infections and pandemic response, with more hands-on practice and point-of-care ultrasound focus. Mental Health & Community Support: A local commentary raises alarm about how people with mental illness are treated in SVG, pointing to violent incidents involving mentally ill individuals and calling for better mental health care and upgrades to services. Eye Health in Public Office: Deputy Prime Minister St. Clair Leacock told Parliament his worsening eyesight required urgent corrective treatment overseas, after a long-standing retinal condition. Survivor Healing After Sexual Violence: The RSVGPF held a Survivor Empowerment Workshop at Black Point, bringing together survivors and support professionals to focus on trauma coping, resilience, and connecting people to care. Agriculture for Resilience: IICA handed over soil-health agricultural kits to SVG farmers Vito Connell and Hazzard Joseph under the ADOPT Caribbean project, including tools and training tied to compost, organic mulch, and climate-smart practices. Local Health System Training Pathway: Saint James School of Medicine launched an international track allowing students to complete clinical rotations locally in SVG at Milton Cato Memorial Hospital and the Mental Health Rehabilitation Centre. Public Safety Incident: Police are investigating the death of Romel Hannaway after a fire in Belvedere; a post-mortem is expected and foul play has not been indicated so far. Nutrition & Wellness via Food Systems: FAO began a coconut and soursop training mission in SVG (Aug 24–31) aimed at improving yields and pest/disease management through practical capacity-building. Disaster Preparedness: Jamaica’s workshop on the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) highlighted strengthening multi-hazard early warning systems so alerts reach people clearly and in time.
