Basic Health, Nutrition & WASH

Health services are one of the key necessities of any community. The basic health care incorporates a pre-emptive approach that utilizes preventive measures, management of chronic disease, and promoting self-care. It also provides increased accessibility to advanced health system. In WASH services, we used to ensure the continuous supply of water and its quality, presence of reasonable sanitation facilities and availability of soap and water for handwashing. Adequate water, sanitation and hygiene are essential components of providing basic health services. The provision of WASH in health care facilities serves to prevent infections and spread of disease, protect staff and patients, and uphold the dignity of vulnerable population. We implemented many interventions on basic health care & WASH specially during covid-19 pandemic. We are presently implementing a WASH project funded by UN agency in Kunar.
