In addition to a lady doctor support staff, a dedicated social worker employed performs field work through a survey on a regular basis and those desiring health care services are encouraged to come to the Regional Center. Talks are given by the social worker at places frequented by the labour class (e.g. the Labour Chowk near the center, the various Parks in GEETA COLONY and adjoining areas)
Designated Depot Holders are appointed at the community level and they are provided with the contraceptives to further streamline the distribution.
Immunization Services
The regional Center also provided extensive immunization facilities as per the guidelines of the Delhi Govt.
A dedicated Immunization Drive is carried out on 2 days i.e. Wednesday and Friday at the Center On every Thusday, the immunization camp is set up in the Muslim Dominated Rashid Market. The Center has tied up with a private doctor and since this private doctor is of the muslim community, the muslims in the area feel more comfortable in bringing their children here for immunization.
To keep a track of the vaccines administered to a particular child, a card is made and handed over to the parents, where the next immunization dates are mentioned. In addition to that, a record is kept at the center itself and mobile messages and calls are made (Contact Numbers are taken the first time the parents come with their children for immunization) to the parents in case they skip a particular immunization date.
1. First was a lady who had come for the pre-delivery check- ups. She told us that she had been coming there for the last 5 months and that she quite satisfied with the services and since there was absolutely no charge for these services, it was an additional pull factor for her. 2. Next we interacted with a couple who had come for the immunization of their first child. They informed us that they were indeed called when they missed a particular immunization date and they were always provided services immediately. Since the rush is at the center is less, they are also catered to vey timely and did not have to let-go of a days earnings. 3. Lastly we met with a male person who had come for infertility treatment. He had been married for 7 years but did not have a child. Both he and his wife are undergoing treatment at both the RK Puram Center and the GEETA COLONY Center. He had been guided there by a relative who had received similar treatment and was happy with the services.
