Jhumur is a 23 years old woman lives in Herombogopalpur village, South 24 Parganas, West Bengal, India. She earns her livelihood by working as a day labour. Before SabujSangha’s intervention, she was suffering from vomiting tendency, headaches during her pregnancy period and shown quacks but it was not reduced or cured.
Under such circumstances, the health worker of Sabuj Sangha visited her and found her to be not well and vomiting; she informed that she has shown to the quacks but the health worker explained that she must be showing to the specialized MBBS doctors at Sabuj Sangha’s own Rural Hospital. Initially she was quite reluctant on the matter but then the health worker tried to convince her and said that if she does not like the services then she could refuse such treatment.
Presently, following the words of the health worker, she visited Hospital, shown the specialised doctor and received free medicines. According to her, the behaviour of doctors and nurses are very good in Sabuj Sangha and she got good quality services and finally a safe motherhood achieved through institutional delivery. From financial point of view, the services of free medicines have helped her a lot and looking at the affordability, she may not be able to receive proper health care services but the facilities of Sabuj Sangha has allowed her to do so.
