Services
New Born Care
Caring for newborns is a responsibility we take very seriously. From the moment a baby is born, we are there to monitor their vital signs, ensure they are feeding well, and administer necessary vaccinations. We are also available to support the parents, answering their questions and providing advice on how to care for their new baby. Our goal is to give every newborn the best possible start in life.
Antenatal and Postnatal Care
Antenatal Care: As healthcare workers, we understand how important it is to monitor the health of both the mother and baby during pregnancy. We perform regular health check-ups, anemia screenings, provide stipends for drug and nutritional support, and offer advice on nutrition and lifestyle to ensure a healthy pregnancy. Our goal is to prepare expectant mothers for a safe and smooth delivery, addressing any concerns they may have along the way.
Health education and counseling
As healthcare educators and counselors, our mission is to equip people with the knowledge they need to lead healthier lives. We provide information on disease prevention, healthy eating, and lifestyle changes, as well as advice on managing existing health conditions. We engage with our clients in a way that’s understanding and supportive, ensuring they feel heard and empowered to make positive changes. Our work doesn’t just involve treating illnesses; it’s about helping people stay healthy in the first place.
Family Planning Services
In our family planning services, we help individuals and couples make informed choices about their reproductive health. We provide counseling on different contraceptive methods, discuss their benefits and side effects, and assist in selecting the best option for each person’s needs. Our aim is to equip people to plan their families in a way that supports their health and well-being.
Immunization
Administering vaccines is a crucial part of our work, as it helps protect children and adults from preventable diseases. We follow EPI schedules to ensure that everyone receives the necessary vaccinations on time. Our role includes educating the community about the importance of immunization and making sure that every vaccine is administered safely and effectively.
Obstetric Services
As obstetric care providers, we are dedicated to supporting women through every stage of pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Our role involves managing labor, monitoring the mother’s and baby’s health, and ensuring a safe delivery. We are trained to handle complications and emergencies, providing reassurance and skilled care during what can be a challenging time. It’s our responsibility to ensure that every birth is as safe and comfortable as possible.
