Improve overall health status of people living in target communities in an around shipyard ensuring access to basic health care services. Improve maternal health status, increasing the number of pregnant women receiving pre and post natal cares as well as increasing institutional delivery through advice, medicinal support and referral services and basic health and hygiene practices to reduce the common ailments among 100,000 populations in poor and needy people


Challenge

The public health system in rural India is extremely inadequate.There is little health care in the region,most existing govt. sub-centres are not functioning. Across the state of West Bengal also the hard to reach areas of various remote corners remain deprived of the mainstream development process resulting marginalized impoverished people living in those areas, become poorer and force to lead a vulnerable life. They remain deprived of basic amenities like health & education facilities.

Long-Term Impact

Sabuj Sangha will place substantial effort to ensure that the project is self-sustainable. To increase the number of patients, and hence possible income, Sabuj Sangha will undertake dedicated visibility and awareness programme. Target is to recover 40% of the total operational cost of first year from the patients' contribution, which will be increased over the five years.
