Chief Medical and Health Officer Bhopal Dr. Prabhakar Tiwari said that the pregnant woman was identified for investigation at the extended Prime Minister’s Safe Maternity Campaign Camp held at Urban Primary Health Center, Pink Nagar on 25 March. The woman was underweight and had an abortion in the east, so she was placed in the high -head category. ASHA worker of ward number 55, Mrs. Suman Verma, continuously motivated the woman to get the camp and conduct an inquiry. But the woman was not ready to go with another person. This was the result of the care and advice given by the ASHA worker from time to time that the woman was convinced that she and her child would not have any kind of threat only when she went with Asha Didi. In view of this belief of the woman, ASHA worker brought the woman to the camp and got her examined.
Chief Medical and Health Officer Bhopal Dr. Prabhakar Tiwari informed that more than eight hundred pregnant women were examined in 66 health institutions in the Extended Prime Minister’s Safe Maternity Campaign Camps held on March 25. In this, women with high -head pregnancy are identified and three additional delivery are being investigated. These special camps are organized on 9 and 25th of every month to reduce maternal and newborn mortality. Even after delivery, ASHA worker is followed by a house for 45 days, so that the woman and baby can get better care after delivery.
