AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

TB Treatment Security & Law: Two patients with infectious tuberculosis escaped from the General Hospital again, sparking fresh public fear and renewed questions about hospital security and whether Saint Lucia has proper legislation to restrict and criminalise TB patients. Water Woes in Babonneau: Babonneau residents are still dealing with weeks-long outages despite local water sources, with WASCO pointing to the Hill 20 Water Supply System and its river intake setup. Heat Stress Warning: Clinics are seeing more dizziness and fainting linked to rising temperatures, as officials urge hydration and sun avoidance—especially for older adults, children, and pregnant women—while El Niño could worsen conditions. School Health Push: The Ministry of Health urges families and schools to “Be Healthy, Active, Smart,” focusing on nutrition, movement breaks, and mental well-being as the new school year starts. Breastfeeding Support: Vieux Fort Wellness Centre ran a hands-on breastfeeding workshop to build confidence, teach positioning and latching, and tackle common myths. Regional Critical Care Training: PAHO/WHO supported severe infection and critical care simulation training for health professionals across Eastern Caribbean countries, including Saint Lucia. Suicide Prevention Skills: A Guadeloupe–Saint Lucia workshop is strengthening local clinical skills for early suicide prevention and intervention. Local Standards Action: The Saint Lucia Bureau of Standards held a juice labelling workshop after complaints about beverage labels not meeting health and safety requirements.
