Animal slaughtering in St. Lucia occurs on a weekly basis in abattoirs around the island.
The process is guided by procedures set by various different agencies, in order to maintain product and service quality to the general public.
In keeping with tradition, abattoirs become busier during the month of December, as more people look to purchase meat for their Christmas dishes.
As a result, The Ministry of Health Wellness and Elderly Affairs joins forces with the Agricultural Ministry to ensure best practices are kept during the increase in production.

The Ministry of Health, Wellness and Elderly Affairs receives support through the Health Systems Strengthening Project (HSSP) to strengthen the health care system in Saint Lucia.
๐Public Notice
This year's observance of Universal Health Day is a call to action to protect and advance the right to health for ALL. This speaks directly to the need for eroding the inequities which create barriers to care and widening the coverage of quality healthcare services. By so doing, we build societies with a strengthened foundation where citizens can live more fulfilling and productive lives.
The Project Implementation Unit recently in a short ceremony handed over vehicles, pharmaceuticals, medical supplies, and laboratory consumables and reagents to the Ministry of Health. These much-needed resources were prioritized under the Health Systems Strengthening Project and are expected to assist with improving the delivery of care at various institutions.
The recipients of the items are as follows:
* Ministry of Health - one panel van, pharmaceuticals, medical supplies
* St. Jude Hospital - one panel van, one double cab pick-up van
* Ezra Long Lab, OKEU Hospital - Laboratory consumables and reagents

Health sector organizations around the world all joined in the annual observance of World Diabetes Day on November 14th.
The Ministry of Health, Wellness, and Elderly Affairs this year kicked off activities with a speech by the Health Minister.
Minister Jn. Baptiste in his speech says this yearโs focus is on education and demystifying rumors.
Family Life Educator within the Ministry, Laurentia Maylor, says activities will span over a period of two weeks in health clinics around the island. This yearโs campaign places a heavy focus on helping people understand and balance their sugar and sodium intakes, using the plate method.
The activities will be interactive, giving participants the opportunity to pose questions to the nurses present. Other activities will include a panel discussion with health officials and testimonials from the St. Lucia Diabetic and Hypertension Association.
According to data collected from 2018 to 2022, the number of registered persons over the age of 18 living with diabetes has declined.
The Ministry of Health is using this yearโs drive to also encourage persons to register for care and monitoring at their local facilities.
To just think, in 2022 there is the continued need for November 25 to be used as a platform for the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.
A simple act of pause and reflection today should bring into focus the human and social injustice of gender-based violence.
There still remains the urgent need for collective commitment and focused action to transform the lived experiences of our women and girls...๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด, ๐ค๐ฉ๐ช๐ญ๐ฅ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฏ, ๐ด๐ช๐ด๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด, ๐ข๐ถ๐ฏ๐ต๐ด, ๐ค๐ฐ๐ญ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐จ๐ถ๐ฆ๐ด, ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ช๐จ๐ฉ๐ฃ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ๐ด, ๐ง๐ณ๐ช๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ด.

Representatives from the World Bank recently visited Saint Lucia on a mission aimed at providing guidance to fast-track the readiness of the launch of the Performance-Based Financing (PBF) pilot.
The mission focused on the training of key stakeholders on change management and use of funds, providing technical support on the communications component for the PBF launch, providing technical guidance on the legal and operational aspects of the PBF and providing guidance on global practices on PBF implementation from other countries.
Meetings were held with staff from the Project Implementation Unit within the Ministry of Health and other health officials and representatives.
The performance-based financing pilot is focused on providing screening and treatment services for diabetes and hypertension at primary healthcare facilities.
It is expected to be implemented in a phased approach and will cover 8 primary healthcare facilities in the first instance.
Performance-based financing is considered an effective step toward achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC) in Saint Lucia.

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal number three speaks to ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all, regardless of age, race, location, and income. This underlies the basis of the World Bankโs continued efforts to provide assistance to countries moving ahead with UHC implantation. The Caribbean Flagship Regional Knowledge Exchange hosted in St. Lucia in October was one such World Bank venture. This was achieved with support from the Korea World Bank Partnership Facility. Edit Velenyi - Senior Economist, World Bank โThereโs huge amount of opportunities to learn both within the countries and across the countries, as well as from Korea. Korea is not only a knowledge champion but itโs an OECD country with very good developmental outcomes and we wanted to sort of accelerate your opportunities in growth and developmentโ The three-day event also facilitated discussions on Hospital Sector Modernization. This included a tour of St. Luciaโs premiere facility, the Owen King European Union Hospital located within the Millennium Heights Medical Complex. The OKEUH was commissioned in 2020 during the height of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The Management of the Hospital at the time was celebrated for its ability to transfer services between hospitals without any major glitches or loss of life. Dr. Lisa Charles - Director of Clinical Services at the Millennium Heights Medical Complex โWe are one of the only islands that has moved a hospital the way that we did, Victoria Hospital into OKEU Hospital. So just based on that experience alone and remember we spent many years planning that move, many years with consultants who were brought in to assist us with the logistics. So in terms of that knowledge, particularly in terms of transitioning a hospital to a new state of the art facility where we were not using that level of technical equipment etc.โ Performance Based Financing is a new financing mechanism being introduced by the World Bank.

It is a time in when all sectors come together to raise awareness of the impact of breast cancer. Breast cancer is the most common cancer globally and affects 2.3 million women. In 2020, worldwide breast cancer was responsible for 685, 000 deaths. As of 2021, there were 7.8 million women who were diagnosed with breast cancer. Breast cancer in Saint Lucia is the most common cancer found in women and contributes significantly to the years of productivity lost due to disease and death. The risk factors for breast cancer include having a family or personal history of breast cancer, obesity, the abuse of alcohol, having a first period before 12 years, having a first child after 30 years of age, hormone use and increasing age. Although more common after 50 years, breast cancer can occur at earlier ages and also in men. Some factors which appear to protect women from breast cancer include the following: physical activity, breastfeeding, earlier childbirth, later first period and earlier menopause. Breast Cancer Awareness month is a time also to applaud the efforts of so many who have gone before us in raising awareness to promote early detection and prevent deaths. Women like Betty Ford, wife of former president Gerald Ford, who was a breast cancer survivor, paved the way for many others as she used her influence to promote the importance of education and early detection in the fight against breast cancer globally. We especially wish to applaud the efforts of our cancer NGOs

The recent COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the physical, spiritual, mental, social and economic health of the population. Mental health has been widely affected with new and amplified mental health problems. Preliminary findings obtained from the routine services provided to the community have shown issues related to grief and loss of jobs, family members, financial security, and support systems. Mental health is an essential part of being healthy and is just as important as physical health. As the World Health Organization (WHO) declared โThere is no health without mental healthโ. There appears to be increasing global agreement of the importance of mental health in our daily life as it reflects in the way we feel, think and interact. The World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH) has chosen the theme for 2022 โโMaking Mental Health and wellbeing for all a global priority.โโ Saint Lucia along with the rest of the world observed World Mental Health Day on October 10th. We would like to emphasize that we all have a voice, let us use it to make the world a better place. We can all fight to stop stigma and discrimination. Stigma and discrimination continue to hinder inclusion and access to appropriate care. The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) has launched a stigma reduction campaign #DoYourShare to support mental health The Ministry of Health, Wellness and Elderly Affairs joins PAHO and calls on every individual to #DoYourShare for mental health. We all have a role to play. The reduction of stigma and discrimination will result in improved outcomes for service users, thus improving mental health literacy for all. We c
