of care
Targeting Vulnerable Parishes for greater Equity:

> 50% population extremely poor > 50% population indigenous Indian
Main Project strategies: Mobilize Community and use BCC methods to increase demand for & access
to care and to improve household best practices.
Create a Community level of EONC care, firmly linked to primary and referral levels of care via “Parish MNH micro-network teams”
Improve quality and 24/7 availability of high impact, evidence-based EONC care at all levels, community, primary and referral (including public and private facilities) as part of a “Provincial MNH Network”

Linking TBAs and community organizations to the formal health system increases access to quality EONC
TBAs and community organizations are an effective source to identify high risk women/newborns
TBAs are a powerful resource to increase early post-partum home newborn visits
A “micronetwork” of skilled personnel and TBAs, at the base of an EONC system, is a powerful strategy to deliver high impact, evidence-based interventions.
