This initiative marks a significant step towards integrating nurses as key stakeholders in combating tobacco addiction nationwide. With a vision to extend beyond hospital walls, Dr. Gupta advocates for the involvement of nursing colleges and schools in promoting #tobaccofree lifestyles. This pioneering effort shall not only enhance patient care through nurses but also it will add-on to their vital role in assisting doctors to treat tobacco addiction (due to nicotine) in their tobacco using patients getting admitted to hospitals towards tobacco-free #healthier #lives. Through such initiatives countrywide, India can further strengthen tobacco Control and reduce its burden of tobacco. Dr. Gupta has also shared a note for MoHFW and State governments through the national alliance WhatsApp group on tobacco control: "It is time to engage and empower nurses in tobacco cessation delivery countrywide.

There is a critical shift in the Family Planning (FP) program's priorities—from raising awareness about contraceptive methods to ensuring continuation and retention of modern contraceptive usage. We have achieved a good progress on creating awareness through various IEC/SBCC and demand generation activities thus bringing significant improvement in modern contraceptive prevalence rate. The key challenge now lies in ensuring continuation and retention of contraceptive use after adoption. Discontinuation remains a significant barrier to sustained success in FP programs. Counseling is identified as the most important intervention to address discontinuation. It ensures clients make informed decisions and are better prepared to manage side effects or challenges. National Health Mission- Uttar Pradesh has implemented a training module from GoI, for all facility-based counselors, integrating Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn, Child, and Adolescent Health (RMNCAH) content to bring a broader impact on the overall RMNCAH outcomes, as contraceptive continuation is closely tied to maternal and child health indicators.

The page evaluates Project Ujjwal's impact on reproductive and #ChildHealth in Bihar and Odisha, India. It highlights the project's success in enhancing the uptake of #ReproductiveHealth services and improving #MaternalHealthcare through a public-private partnership model. The evaluation found significant improvements in the use of contraceptives and access to antenatal care, contributing positively to both reproductive and child health outcomes in these states. Further analysis is suggested to understand the disparities in results between the two regions and address unmet demands. Anagha Lokhande Romuladus Emeka Azuine, DrPH, MPH, RN E.

Today's Report Date:- 22/5/2024 Dist:- Mahasamund Block:- Basna Sector:- Basna 02 & Paraskol Visited place:- 1) SAM child home visit & 1 diet sheet 2) ICDS office Bansula 3) Samarthya app follow up Summary of the work done today Today I went to meet SAM children's home. Both children have cough and cold. Both the children are twins and one child has ear problem. He has an ear infection and his mother said that after 15 days a child gets infection in his ear and after 15 days it gets cured. Then the Anganwadi worker suggests them to meet Dr. Dayanand Hota, a women and child specialist. They will guide you in proper way. 1 diet sheet to be filled on field. After that when CDPO sir called for a meeting, I went to ICDS office Bansula.Here we discussed about Aadhar updation, SAM child status, stunting report and medicine supply chain, Samarthya app registration, SAM child home visit and registration. After that the state team shared AWH report where 3 AWH did not do Aadhaar verification. The supervisor told that the helper's Aadhaar is updated and the choice center person is not providing it. Then I downloaded his aadhar card but his aadhar card security password is not working and opening.It is showing error. After that the other AWH did not update the Aadhaar card, so we updated on the old number. But it is showing error so Aadhaar card of both AWH is not updated. After this, the supervisor's home visit letter was signed this month. Then I checked Samarth app registration from all my supervisors.All are registered on the app but if this is not visible on the app then informed the state team and DNC. After this, Samarthya App of Baradoli and Basna 02 sector was followed up. SAM Child Development Monitoring Report shared with supervisor. #csam #cmam #aiims #unicef #homevisit #fieldvisit #followup #adharupdation #followup #visit #letter #sampalakcard #monitoring #registration #icds #chc #counselling #DNC #blocknutritioncoordinator #supervisor

"Hi-profile people will have hi-end choice" No, it's NOT a motivational line. It's an English translation of a hindi tag line. "Oonche log - Oonchi pasand" -- A tag line for a Pan masala company. Pasted large & bold behind a state government owned BMTC bus. I was disturbed & surprised for 2 reasons-- 1. The same government had passed a great sweeping order few weeks back banning Hookah in Cafe Bar & Restaurants. Isn't that a dichotomy? 2. Is it morally right for a government body to promote a harmful carcinogenic product like pan masala? According to a study by National Institute Of Health And Family Welfare (Nihfw),ÊSouth Delhi Pan masala & Gutkha can cause #oralcancer Stomach cancer Pancreatic cancer Oro-dental diseases Cerebrovascular stroke Reproductive health issues Liver cirrhosis Chronic kidney diseases. The study pointed out the huge drain on govt & society in terms of medical cost & productive work loss cost. And the worrying trend of increasing usage among young students & teenagers. It's addictive like drugs. In fact many govt have banned sale of any Pan products anywhere near school premises. My view - Government should never be seen as a party in promoting such addictive & harmful products through any of their mediums. There are many for-profit celebrities standing in line to do that. We don't need our government too, to be seen standing in that line. PS-- What's your view on this? Hope this message reaches the right authorities & they pull down all such surrogate ads from their assets , buses & buildings. Please tag or repost to reach the right person who can take appropriate action- if you agree. #healthcare #sayno #saynotodrugs #ethicalgovernance #bmtc #government #karnataka #bangalorediaries BMTC Geras Health

I expect much better from Associated Press. This article is so selective as to be misleading in the worse sense. It implies that Canadians are eligible for a medically assisted death (MAiD) if they are poor, obese, or grieving. None of these criterion would make one eligilbe for MAiD, unless they also have a grievous and irremediable condition that as t meets all criteria and safeguards. Another egregious comment is that those “tasked” with providing MAiD find it morally distressing. This would never happen as doctors and nurse practitioners are protected from assessing or providing MAiD if against their conscience, and are simply required to make an effective referral. The authors clearly went to great effort to make it looked like balanced reporting but it is simply more anti-MAiD fearmongering. So disappointing.

In Canada - nurses - which are paid by the government are said to “assign sex at birth” by their employer. They do not describe what is, rather prescribe what sex the baby is according to the government. Afterwords if a paid counsellor affirms what the nurse “assigned at birth” - he or she could face a two year jail term. (Bill C-4) Yet the nurse who they claim “assigned” the sex of the baby is immune from prosecution. Every person who voted to implement this bill was born of a woman - (and this would be valid even if every person on earth deemed her not a woman) Who was made pregnant by a man (and this would be valid even if every person on earth deemed him not a man) So we now have this incredible situation: The nurse is given reality determining power by 338 people who do not posses this power. The same 338 determine the limits of this power, as those who grant this power have determined; any nurse who identifies as “vaccinated” was fired. Stupidity is untenable. It has a short lifespan.

“I thought the training would be boring, but it motivated me to take special care of adolescents!” - Medical officer training participant. Our Tarunya project focused on training service providers to deliver youth-friendly care, improving demand for adolescent reproductive and sexual health (ARSH) services, and strengthening healthcare systems. A key achievement was adapting and translating the national ARSH curricula into Hindi, which allowed us to effectively train medical officers, outreach workers, and community health workers, including those working with youth, such as teachers.

The affinity towards the c-section births is growing in India despite the high medical procedures. It currently stands at 23% which is more than the WHO standard of 10-15%. Experts say that the growth is due to various socio-economic factors and increased access to healthcare.
