HOPE MOTHER & CHILD HEALTH CENTERS; A POSITIVE OUTCOME TOWARDS AN UNFORTUNATE SITUATION

At HOPE - A Health NGO in Pakistan we priorities maternal health because of the impacts it has on the generations to come. Quality maternal health care not only provides her wellbeing, but it makes a difference to guarantee the great wellbeing of her infant child and the rest of her family. 

HOPE - An NGO in Pakistan has established Maternal and Child Health Centers MCH in Manzoor Colony, Mujahid Colony, Bilal Colony, 100 Quarter, and Langerpura (AJK) where antenatal care is provided to mothers. Normal deliveries are conducted at MCH Centre. Chest infections, diarrhea, skin allergies, are the common diseases treated at these centers. Free of cost medical consultation and medicines are provided to the needy patients. Ultrasound is also done here by a professional gynecologist. Annually 84,967 patients are seen at these centers.

These MCH Centers is mainly visited by mothers and their children, services like ultra sound, antenatal checkup is provided. The purpose of these MCH centers is to provide the needed maternal and child health services. To provide antenatal and obstetric care to expectant mothers. The most important thing is saving mothers and newborn lives. Many mothers who are expecting come to these clinics who literally do not find any support during pregnancy; because they depend on traditional birth attendants for home deliveries without ultrasound facilities, which result in difficulties during complicated delivery cases, due to which they are they rushed to hospitals. 

The main reason for the establishment of these MCH Centers in various areas, is the population ratio, who do not have access to medical facilities at a reasonable price in this area. Hence HOPE is the first to establish MCH Centers which was highly needed by the people of these area.

Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla – A ChildSpecialist in Karachi, who is also the founder and Chairperson of HOPE; collaborates with other local as well as International organizations through which they can back us in our cause in giving wellbeing, care facilities and services to the underprivileged communities all through Pakistan, by setting up medical centers, Mobile Health Units, Mother & Child Healthcare Clinics, where patients are treated at a minimal or free of cost.
