Spreeha Celebrated “Safe Motherhood Day”
Spreeha celebrated "Safe Motherhood Day" on April 11th like every year. Maternal and child health continues to be a key focus of Spreeha's healthcare program.
On safe motherhood day, Spreeha organized a knowledge sharing session for expectant mothers at our healthcare center and within the community. The sessions highlighted the importance of providing proper healthcare and maternity facilities to expecting and lactating mothers.
In this interactive session, Spreeha’s trained health educators shared lessons from the book “Babu Barta”, which is specifically designed to cater to communities suffering from a severe lack of knowledge on prenatal and postnatal healthcare. The participants were counselled on how to respond efficiently to the needs of pregnancy and motherhood, so they are aware of their own health as well as their babies.
