La Chaîne de l’Espoir recruits 01 Adult Intensivist – M/W

DESCRIPTION OF THE ASSOCIATION

La Chaîne de l’Espoir is an international NGO founded in 1994. Its mission is to strengthen health systems to give everyone, especially children, the same chances of survival and development. Helping the most vulnerable children is more than an ethical obligation, it is a prerequisite for achieving the 2030 goals for children’s health and well-being.

We work in 28 countries with a comprehensive approach, focusing on children, mothers, and disadvantaged communities:

  • Prevention and screening from an early age, particularly through school health programs
  • Care and surgery, to meet the most urgent needs of children and their mothers.
  • Strengthening the medical and surgical workforce thanks to our international network of experts.
  • Construction and equipment of hospital structures adapted to local needs.

Context 

La Chaîne de l’Espoir has been working in Afghanistan since the early 2000s. In 2005, it built the French Medical Institute for Children (FMIC) in Kabul, a non-profit pediatric hospital, to provide high quality medical and surgical care for young patients. Since 2006, the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN) has been responsible for the overall management of the FMIC, with La Chaîne de l’Espoir providing medical support and access to the most vulnerable populations. In 2016, the hospital expanded with the opening of gynecology, obstetrics, and neonatology services, becoming the French Medical Institute for Mothers and Children (FMIC). Services for adults have also been developed in recent years.

The goal of La Chaîne de l’Espoir is to increase access to healthcare for the most vulnerable Afghans. To do so, La Chaîne de l’Espoir:

  • Trains and supports the medical, paramedical and technical teams through short- and long-term volunteer missions.
  • Provides free surgical treatment at FMIC and social care for the most vulnerable children and women coming from all the 34 provinces of Afghanistan, through the « Women and Children’s House » (WCH) project.

Given the humanitarian crisis in the country and the health system being on the brink of collapse, La Chaîne de l’Espoir plans to continue its support for the most vulnerable Afghan children and women and to reinforce the training for medical staff at the FMIC.
