Maternal & Child Health Care
Interventions:
Motivation, awareness raising and dissemination of
knowledge through different means and media are the most important
software activities under the program to improve the overall health status
of the target people. The software supports comprise all the services,
which lead to sustainable behavioral change. Keeping this in mind,
awareness raising acts on health related issues within the community
people have been emphasized at as one of the most important parts
throughout the reporting period.

Among many health related issues, awareness
activities were carried out on personal hygiene practice, dehydration &
importance of ORS, Antenatal Care (ANC), Post Natal Care (PNC), delivery
care, health & nutrition, family planning, water & sanitation,
immunization, etc.

The program staff organized small and large level
group meetings, conducted household visits, displayed video films and
arranged audio folk songs to send a message to raise awareness among the
target people and motivate them. Several Behavioral Change Communication
(BCC) materials like posters, leaflets, flipcharts, stickers etc. were
mainly used for different promotional activities.
To achieve the objectives under Maternal Health Care
program, Rainbow Nari O Shishu Kalyan Foundation is now providing several
trainings among its target groups.
