Ans) VCHWs are effective resources for spreading awareness about health issues and improving health outcomes.
- The majority of the volunteers tend to be young, single, well-educated, and female.
- Though the roles of VCHWs vary depending on the needs of specific communities, in general, their work consists of activities aimed at teaching the community about improved health practices, as well as the promotion of latrine construction and hygiene.
- VCHWs are usually elected or nominated by the community on the basis of their literacy, communication skills, credibility and previous experiences. After the selection process, VCHWs frequently receive training on maternal and child health, hygiene, sanitation and malaria prevention.
- VCHWs transmit key health messages to families through house-to-house visits, by going to water collection points, church meetings, and women’s association meetings. They often use a family health booklet to convey important messages about vaccination, birth preparedness, newborn care, HIV prevention, child nutrition, and family planning among other topics. “While their efforts were often characterized by initial resistance followed by gradual acceptance, all of the respondents were very positive about their work.”
