Work Culture & Environment

Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

Stationed across designated urban slum and non-slum mohallas/wards in Ballia city under the National Urban Health Mission (NUHM). Day-to-day work involves door-to-door community outreach, identifying pregnant women and tracking antenatal care (ANC), facilitating institutional deliveries (Janani Suraksha Yojana), mobilizing infants for routine immunization sessions (Urban Health and Nutrition Days - UHND), promoting family planning methods, maintaining family survey registers, and coordinating with Urban Primary Health Centres (UPHC) and ANMs.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Purely honorary community health activist engagement co-terminus with National Health Mission (NUHM) guidelines.
