DONATION OF PHARMACEUTICALS
and RELATED GOODS
1. INTRODUCTION
The Ministry of Health & Environment is a recipient of various gifts from both
local and international donors. Pharmaceuticals, medical sundries and other
related products account for a large percentage of the items donated.
Critical factors that influence acceptance of gifts include the quantities being
donated, usefulness, usage pattern, expiry dates, distribution and likely pub-
lic health impact. Quantities are important because they can directly impact
the Ministry's spending on drugs and other items.. By foregoing purchases of
items that have been donated in adequate quantities, scarce money can be
used for other supplies.
• The list of pharmaceuticals and any other related items proposed for
donation should be sent through the Regional Health Offices to the
major local health facilities for which the donations are intended, to
determine whether the products can be utilized, once the donor has
identified them as possible donations for Jamaica. A coordinator
based locally may act on behalf of overseas donors.
