Village Health Survey

Village Health, Sanitation, and Nutrition Committees (VHSNCs), one of the key interventions introduced by the National Rural Health Mission, are an important mechanism to ensure community participation and ownership for decentralized health planning. Baseline surveys help in understanding the specific needs of the community and the programmes which need to be emphasized. Such surveys help in identifying the gaps and describing the current scenario in the community for which counter-actions could be taken to ensure the enhancement of particular areas of development.

Aim

To assess the implementation status of VHSNCs and analyze the issues regarding their implementation in the villages of Tamil Nadu.
