COMMUNITY HEALTH, LAST MILE

Seva Health Connect

Connecting Community to better health

SEVA ASMAKAM DHARMAH CHARITABLE TRUST HEALTH CAMP

WHY SEVA HEALTH CONNECT?

Public clinics, schemes, and trained workers are already in the district. What is missing is a trusted person who can sit on a courtyard mat, explain the next step, and stay until the appointment is kept.

Seva Health Connect trains that person. We do not replace the health system. We make it reachable—especially for women, adolescents, and households that screening never quite finds.

WHAT DOES IT DO ?

Adolescent Girls' Health

Educate villagers about hygiene, nutrition, sanitation, disease prevention, maternal health, and healthy lifestyles.

Basic Health Screening

Organize health camps and basic screenings, such as blood pressure and blood sugar checks, through qualified healthcare personnel.

Adolescent Girls' Health​

Promote menstrual hygiene, nutrition, anaemia awareness, and access to appropriate health services for adolescent girls.

Healthcare Linkage and Referrals

Help people connect with government health centres, ASHA workers, ANMs, PHCs, CHCs, and hospitals for further care.​

WHAT DOES IT DO ?

Four ways we close the last mile

Women

Antenatal support, anaemia, contraception counselling, and safe referral for complications.

Adolescents

Age-appropriate information, nutrition, and a confidential first conversation about health.

Prevention

Hygiene, immunisation reminders, NCD screening, and habits that keep households well.

Health linkages

ASHA, ANM, PHC, and specialist pathways made visible, practical, and followed through

HOW IT WORKS

A five-step approach to better health

01

Listen locally

We begin by understanding people, families and communities to identify the needs that matter most.

02

Train connectors​

Community workers learn screening, counselling, and when to refer. Competence first; kits second

03

Meet people where they are

Household visits and courtyard sessions replace waiting rooms that never get reached.

04

Link into public care

Each person leaves with a named facility, a named worker, and the papers they need.

05

Follow until done

Registers close only when care is received — or a documented reason it was not.

“Someone came back the next week.”

Meera had been told, twice, to visit the PHC for anaemia. The first time she could not leave the shop. The second time she did not know which window to stand at.

A Seva connector sat with her, packed the old lab slip, and waited through the queue. Iron started that afternoon. A follow-up visit confirmed she was still taking it. That is the whole method: not a camp that leaves, a person who returns.

Meera, 34 — hamlet participant

Health services connection

Information and guidance, not a second system

Frontline workers

How to find your ASHA and ANM, what they can do at home, and when they must send you onward.

Facilities

PHC, CHC, and district hospital — what each actually treats, and which papers to carry.

Schemes & entitlements

Guidance on maternal, adolescent, and NCD programmes so a right does not stay a rumour.

When it is urgent

Danger signs we teach households to recognise, and the nearest 24-hour point of care.
