Healthcare
Maternal & Child Health
Care for a mother is care for the next generation.
Prenatal visits, safe delivery support, growth monitoring, and immunizations, so a mother and her baby both come through the earliest years healthy.
The first thousand days
From a first prenatal visit to a child's second birthday is the window that shapes the rest of a life. It is also the window where a missed check up or a delayed vaccine does the most damage. This program exists to keep families inside it.
- Prenatal checkups and nutrition counseling
- Postnatal follow up for mother and newborn
- Growth monitoring and the full childhood immunization schedule
- Guidance for new mothers on feeding, hygiene, and the warning signs that mean go now
- Referral to partner hospitals when a case needs more than we can carry
Working with the women already doing this
Traditional birth attendants and community health workers are often the only care a rural mother sees. Rather than working around them, we train alongside them and make sure they can reach us when a delivery turns complicated.
