COMMUNITY BASED HEALTH CARE:

AWARE believes that health facility is right o every citizen and Govt should provide. Due to poor coverage of institutions concerned, community suffers a lot especially in rural area. Unawareness about health and hygiene and poor facilities of water and sanitation augment the problems. In target area of AWARE there are BHUs/Dispensaries but staff is not paying visits regularly. Due to unavailability of treatment of snakebite case and MCH care in emergency inhabitants have to pay high cost to transport patients to nearby cities/treatment. To bridge the gap, AWARE is striving to raise awareness on health & hygiene, importance of sanitation and setting examples of primary health care services in rural area.
