Hyderabad, 17th February 2016:  India Home Healthcare (IHHC), one of country’s leading home healthcare service providers, conducted a panel discussion for the doctors and nurses on the importance of maternal care and its trends in the city on Wednesday. IHHC has launched a campaign “Care for her”, to emphasize on the beautiful bond of love shared between mother and her child. The panel comprised of two eminent doctors in the city such as Dr.Rooma Sinha, Consultant Gynecologist and Obstetrician, Apollo Hospitals and Dr.Padmaja, OBG Gynecologist, Fernandez Hospitals.

The event commenced with Dr.Anitha Arockiasamy, President, IHHC addressing the gathering and Ms. Madhuri Kasi – Director, IHHC - Hyderabad threw light on the launch of their campaign and services in Hyderabad and its benefits. The discussion moderated by Dr.Anitha briefed on the issues faced by expecting mothers, post-partum care and the challenges faced by women to conceive a child. The panel of doctors discussed the challenges involved to meet the growing needs of the newborn babies and their mothers.

The campaign also aims at addressing pregnant women working in the construction sites of Hyderabad. India Home Health Care will be sending a team of trained nurses who will meet them in their sites and educate them on the Do’s and Dont’s during pregnancy and post delivery.

The doctors highlighted the lack of awareness among women on the importance of proper hygiene and maternal care. Speaking on this, the doctors shared few essential steps that need to be taken by women to fight against problems and diseases that can occur post pregnancy. Understanding these difficulties faced by women, Dr.Anitha spoke about the home care packages offered by India Home Health Care to ensure that the right kind of care and attention is received by these women and how home healthcare is the ideal solution for these challenges and difficulties. The panel discussion closed with a Q & A session with an exchange of various views among the doctors and nurses on the subject.

Commenting on the occasion, Dr.Anitha Arockiasamy, President-IHHC, said “Natal care is most often associated to the attention given to women during their pregnancy. Mothers who have just delivered and the newborn baby require equal attention during the postnatal period. Envisaging this need, we wanted to discuss how home healthcare can address all the immediate needs of the mother and newborn. Our care package caters to both the mother and the newborn with underlying medical conditions or birth trauma. The trained caregivers offer assistance in breastfeeding, bathing and dressing. ”
