MAGEE WOMANCARE
INTERNATIONAL
In March 1992, Magee-Womens Hospital in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania began an unprecedented program
to improve health care conditions for women and infants in the former Soviet Union. Working in
partnership with the second largest hospital in Moscow, Savior's Hospital for Peace and Charity (formerly
Municipal Hospital #70), Magee-Womens Hospital is proud to be one of the 21 American hospitals
participating in the U.S. AID's health partnerships program of the American International Health Alliance.
The Magee-Savior's partnership is also a recipient of an estimated $3 million dollars in medical
equipment distributed to the former Soviet Union through the U.S. State Department's Operation Provide
Hope.
In January, 1994, Hillary Clinton and Naina Yeltsin chose the Magee-Savior's partnership as a primary
site to visit and discuss efforts in health care reform for women and children in Russia. In July, 1994
Jane Fonda along with Naina Yeltsin and Alice Pickering selected the Magee-Savior's partnership as a
place to learn more about the status of women in the former Soviet Union.
As a world leader in women's health, Magee-Womens Hospital is responding to the needs of Russian
women:
to develop a culturally-sensitive model of improved obstetric care which can be easily and
economically replicated throughout the former Soviet Union
to develop a model consumer and community education program for women and their families
to strengthen health care administration

WOMAN AND FAMILY FOUNDATION
at Savior's Hospital for Peace & Charity
Moscow, Russia
the first registered hospital auxiliary in Russia
The Woman and Family Foundation at Savior's Hospital is a registered non-profit organization whose
programs encompass areas that are not traditionally incorporated into the structure of a Russian public
hospital. These areas include fundraising, community affairs, consumer education, and volunteer
services. The Foundation's goals reflect a need to provide support services for both staff and visitors,
to make available funds for purchase of supplies and equipment, and to support educational and
training programs for staff and consumers.
The Foundation grew out of the initiative of members of the birth house collective at Savior's Hospital.
Following discussions about their long-term goals in light of the new family-centered model of care to
be implemented in partnership with Magee-Womens Hospital, staff members realized the importance of
pooling their efforts and trying to attract outside funding in order to keep the model self-sustaining.
Their proposal was met with support from the hospital administration, who recognized the need to
create a structure that would help support the birth house program as well as to provide funds and
services in other areas not covered by government subsidies. Additionally, by fostering volunteer
service at the birth house and in other departments, the hospital more completely fulfills its mission as
both a provider or quality healthcare services and a community center.
The Foundation's administrative structure is three-tiered, consisting of an Advisory Board, the
Executive Committe and an Executive Directorship. Membership in the Foundation is open to hospital
staff and members of the community at large, including foreign citizens, and all members are eligible
for election to the Advisory Board and the Executive Committee. Membership can be individual or
institutional.
A flagship program of the Foundation is the Magee Woman and Family Educational Center, which has
been operational since July 1993. Staffed by six trained Russian health educators, the Center offers
classes in prepared childbirth and health seminars for women of all ages, operates a telephone hotline
on pregnancy and newborn care, a reference library, and conducts training programs and conferences
for medical staff of Moscow birth houses. Although headquartered at Savior's Hospital, the Center also
runs programs in Orekhova-Zuevo, a factory suburb of Moscow, and at schools and prenatal clinics
around Moscow. A quarterly newlsetter provides updates on center activities, program information,
and articles on topics such as nutrition and labor support.
The Foundation will be responsible for many new services in the birth house. These include a gift shop
that will feature baby-care and feminine hygiene products, flowers and gift items, as well as a
secondhand department, a baby-picture service, operation of a snack bar for visitors and staff, and a
coatroom. Volunteers from the community will staff an information desk and distribute reading
materials and diversionary activities to patients. The Foundation will also sponsor the publication of
two handbooks - a guide to the birth house for new patients and a new-baby reference book.

Charmed by Mrs. Clinton's Visit
By Fred Hiatt
Washington Post Foreign Service
MOSCOW, Jan. 14-Anastasia Sidorova, 78, waited
in the snow outside Savior's Hospital for Peace and
Charity, hoping to glimpse Hillary Rodham Clinton.
The visit of the Russian and American First Ladies
had forced Sidorova's church next door to foreshorten
its morning service, but Sidorova didn't mind.
"Thank you for not forgetting us," she whispered in
Mrs. Clinton's direction, although she never saw the
U.S. president's wife.
Hillary and Chelsea Clinton flew into Moscow this
morning, two days behind the president because Chel-
sea had been finishing her final exams at Sidwell
Friends. Whether due to jet lag or the Whitewater in-
vestigation or her shock at seeing the worst of social-
ized medicine up close, Mrs. Clinton was tight-lipped
with reporters, ignoring most questions as she made
her way from hospital to Kremlin to Red Square and,
eventually, back to the Kremlin-where the First
Family was to spend the night.
But the few ordinary Russians she came into contact
with today seemed charmed. President Clinton told a
television audience that all day Thursday, people had
been asking after his wife-and today they seemed
pleased with what they saw.
"She's very different than she seems on television."
gushed a worker in a Kremlin church who shook Mrs.
Clinton's hand. "She's very kind.

smiled, and we looked into each other's eyes. I'll al-
ways remember it."
For her part, the First Lady thought Moscow "a
beautiful city," her spokeswoman, Lisa Caputo, said.
This was surely an act of goodwill on a day when the
Russian capital was at its worst-dark and slushy and
