A.2 Mobile clinic

In this area there were no proper approach roads and proper conveyance. Under this project we provided mobile health services at their doorsteps. In our mobile team we have qualified & trained doctor, nurse, social worker, and co-ordinator. This team started providing medical treatments and advised them on hygiene, food habits, and organising health awareness camps. Alongwith we organised community meetings on this topic. It gave us a positive result in changing attitude of villagers. Villagers are more awards now about vaccination of children, safe delivery, hygiene, and better food practices.

Impact- 531 Mobile health camp has been organized

 

A.3 Health camps

Keeping in view the prevailing ignorance of the target population Manav Kalyan Pritisthan started organising health awareness camps in the villages. Initially it was more frequent as people were reluctant but after initial hesitation community responded well. Now people come forward with their health needs that may be a reflection of their growing awareness level. Traditional birth attendants at village level and organisations staffs as facilitators are instrumental in organising these health camps. Villagers are being told about seasonal diseases, hygiene; antenatal, delivery and postnatal care and about malnutrition among mothers and children.

A.4 Organising of Dai training 

As informed that child deliveries were conducted by using traditional methods and in an unhygienic manner. The same was one of important reason of high infant mortality rate. In order to solve the problem, we organised training for TBAs. In this regard, we identified traditional birth attendants to train them in child delivery. They were given training to make and use delivery kits. As a part of additional responsibilities, These Traditional birth attendants worked for motivating people and providing birth spacing devices for family planning.

A.5 Formation of Health committee

MANAV KALYAN PRITISTHAN is promoting Health committees to strengthen the awareness process among target population. Community level organisations within the village are being involved to make an out reaching impact upon the community. Traditional birth attendants and office bearers of self help groups and willing members of gram panchayat consist the village health committee. This committee looks after the community health needs, have close liaison with local ANM and primary health centre for timely vaccination of children, antenatal care and delivary; make decisions about organising the health camps as per local and seasonal requirements. To raise the efficacy level of all the commities at desired standereds and to provide them strong voice, efforts are going on to erect a confederation at Primary Health centre level. All the health committees would nominate two members among one is necessarily would be TBA in the confederation. ANMs would also be member of this confederation. It will hold its meetings at PHC concerned. More modalities are being worked out.

Impact points

Health Animators

 Health is the most neglected aspect of life especially of women and child in rural areas. We care for it. We try to sensitize the rural folk on health issues with a thrust on mother and child health care and family planning. To serve this purpose project promotes Traditional birth mmunizati by up scaling their skills. In those areas where traditional birth mmunizati are not there, willing women have been selected as health animator. Project provides training to these traditional birth mmunizati in advanced practices at the time of birth. Efforts are being done to get them recognition by district health department and establish a linkage with local primary health centre. At present we have 55 & 33 trained health animators in our project area.
