AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Blood Donation Push: Jamaica’s Ministry of Health and Wellness has launched the Lifesavers Club to build a steady base of repeat voluntary donors, urging Jamaicans to move from “replacement” giving to continuous blood donation to protect patients needing surgery, childbirth care, and treatment for sickle cell and childhood cancers. School Nutrition Focus: The Education Ministry is spotlighting school cooks as key to student health and learning, with HEART/NSTA Trust support helping certify 300+ cooks nationwide. Hospital Support: Savannah-la-Mar Public General Hospital received medical and laundry equipment worth over J$20 million from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to strengthen A&E services and diagnostic capacity. Governance & Health System Risks: Opposition and civil society are intensifying calls for Cabinet action against Dr Andrew Wheatley after an Integrity Commission recommendation for illicit enrichment charges, raising concerns about leadership and public trust. Regional Health Collaboration: CARICOM and PAHO are driving efforts to end mother-to-child transmission of HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B. Ocean Health & Wellness Link: Jamaica has signed onto the Ocean Coordination Mechanism, strengthening Caribbean blue-economy and marine protection cooperation ahead of the 2029 Our Ocean Conference in Montego Bay.
