General Health Care

In May 2002, in the framework of the national health policy for 1997 2002, General Health Act No. 423 was adopted.

Improved general health status and reproductive patterns, together with access to appropriate general and specialized health care, have greatly reduced the incidence of maternal mortality in the last century.

The Committee recommends that the State party ensure adequate adolescent health services, as stated in its general comment No. 4 (2003) on adolescent health, implementing in particular programmes on reproductive health, sex education and family planning.

It presents the best possible indicator of the health of children and women, as well as of the health state of the population in general.

The hospital is the first referral level in the organization of health care and, by Law on health care protection, it can be general or specialized.

Furthermore, attention must be paid to the relationships between maternal health and other aspects of health and well being in general, such as, undernutrition, child health, and HIV AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.

The Committee recommends that the State party take measures, in accordance with general recommendation 24 on women and health, to improve and increase women's access to health care and health related services and information, particularly in rural areas.

The decades ahead will see dramatic advances in disease prevention, general health, the quality of life.

We support the recommendation of the Secretary General, contained in the annex to the report, on access to reproductive health.

Among the challenges and priorities involved in reaching this goal and improving maternal health in general, it is worth mentioning the incorporation of reproductive health into health policies, programmes and projects, the preparation of studies on women's health to identify areas needing priority assistance, the control of unwanted pregnancies through suitable family planning methods, and the raising of awareness among young people with regard to sexuality and reproductive health.

The Committee recommends that the State party pay close attention to adolescent health, taking into account the Committee's general comment No. 4 on adolescent health and development.
