Comprehensive, family-focused care for a new beginning.
Women are the principal providers of care and support to infants and children, making their position in the society crucial for their children's growth and development. Studies indicate that girl children are selectively discriminated against within the family and receive a smaller distribution of available resources, which retards their growth and creates an imbalance in the sex ratio.
The birth of every child is a blessing. At SHIS Centre for Mother and Child Health Care we are pleased to be part of some of these special moments each year. |
