Maternal and child health (MCH) services aim to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates, promote reproductive health, and ensure the physical and mental development of children. Recent trends in MCH include integrating care, addressing high-risk cases, and utilizing trained community health workers like ASHAs and skilled birth attendants. Key interventions include government-sponsored programs like Janani Suraksha Yojana and Janani Shishu Suraksha Karyakram, which provide financial assistance for institutional deliveries and comprehensive maternal and newborn care.
