Spread the advanced medical services in remote areas of country, as well organize medical health check up camps, time to time medical mobile vans, spreading awareness among people especially in rural areas to protect female foetius which save girl child as well as decrease sex discrimination. Distribute medicines free of cost to people and educate people about it- how to use it, how to preserve it.

Strengthen the reach of vaccinations to the most unprivileged villages in India without any hoarding. Organize your health camps in such areas and educate them to spread awareness.write names of common medicines on walls to let the villagers know whether the chemist is giving him the right medicine or not.Start a immunization train which travels all over the country spreading awareness and camps built inside the train only.

The newborn should be provided free medical aid , nursing staff and the doctors should be patient and help in promoting breast feeding . A number of deaths in this period and later on can be prevented if breast feeding is promoted as these prevent infections and breast milk increase sthe immunological status of the newborn .PROMOTE BREAST FEEDING , GIVE TRAINING TO THE STAFF ABOUT THIS . TELL THEM THE ADVANTAGES OF BREAST FEEDING WHICH THEY SHOULD PASS ON TO THE PATIENTS .

Proper diet and supplements will prevent anemia , low birth babies and premature deliveries will be checked . Emphasis should be laid on getting the deliveries done in the equipped centres by trained health personals .The staff should use all aseptic measures and should be knowing the basics for resuscitation .They should be able to refer the sick newborns to the higher centres fast .All cases of infections should be treated properly in the antenatal period. Hazards of smoking , taking alcohol ,

The primary health centres and sub centres will have to be very vigilant in finding out and registering the pregnant women in their area .In the urban areas the educated mass goes voluntarily for registration in the clinics hence they will not create any problems . Main work is reqd . in the rural areas .Aqualified doctor should examine all the registered females and follow the vulnerable pregnant women .They should be advised the diet , vaccinations and given supplements free of cost .
