Diabetic foot care training: Solomon Islands’ Ministry of Health is coaching frontline health workers to assess, debride, and treat diabetic foot wounds earlier, aiming to cut hospital admissions and lower-limb amputations. Essential medicines supply: At a Public Accounts Committee hearing, MHMS said essential medical supplies are available at about 83%, with calls to push closer to 90% and eventually near 100%, plus tighter control of donor-funded programmes. Health funding request: MHMS is seeking about $6.78m in supplementary approval for 2025 donor contributions from Australia, the EU, Fred Hollows Foundation, and UNICEF, including support for provincial health services, nursing schools, and environmental health work. Water and sanitation support: Community projects funded through China and Australia are improving access to clean water, sanitation, and school facilities—key health drivers for rural communities. Freshwater security push: Government launched the PacFresH2O programme to protect freshwater resources and strengthen climate resilience across Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea. Maritime health access: New RSIPF Naiad boats and an Australia-funded Lofung border outpost are expected to support search-and-rescue, medical evacuations, and delivery of health services in remote areas.
