Description
1. Introduction Maternal and child health is an important dimension of community health nursing. Health service especially meant for mothers and children is more commonly known as "Maternal and Child Health Services". The mission of maternal and child health is to improve the availability of and access to high quality preventive and primary health care for all women (who belong to reproductive age group i.e. 15 to 45 year) and children regardless of their ability to pay. To accomplish this mission welfare state assumed special responsibility with respect to the weaker sections of society. As such, the tribals living in inaccessible areas and with very poor economic background, deserve special treatment. A lot of work has been done on health planning as an integrated part of overall social and economic planning.
