Additional Information / Shotlist An MSF team began supporting the Sinuni General Hospital with emergency and maternity services in December 2018 and quickly realised that mental health was a huge unmet need in the area. Since then, the team has increased the mental health care activities to cover psychiatric and psychological health care activities in Sinuni hospital as well as group sessions and mobile mental health clinics for the displaced on Sinjar mountain.
The teams also run mobile clinic in the Arab villages on the Iraq-Syrian border to offer reproductive health consultations and references to Sinuni hospital for complicated cases.
