GUIDELINES FOR RECRUITMENT OF STAFF TO MOBILE HEALTH TEAMS OF RBSK UNDER NHM

1. INTRODUCTION

   1. The Government of India has launched a new scheme under National Health Mission called Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram (RBSK) aiming at early identification and early intervention for children from birth to 18 years to cover 4 Ds viz. Defects at birth, Deficiencies, Diseases, Development delays including disability.

   2. It is important to note that the 0-6 years age group will be specifically managed at District Early Intervention Center (DEIC) level while for 6-18 years age group, management of conditions will be done through existing public health facilities. DEIC will act as referral linkages for both the age groups. First level of screening is to be done at all delivery points through existing Medical Officers, Staff Nurses and ANMs. After 48 hours till 6 weeks the screening of newborns will be done by ASHA at home as a part of HBNC package. Outreach screening will be done by dedicated mobile block level teams for 6 weeks to 6 years at anganwadis centres and 6-18 years children at school.

   3. Once the child is screened and referred from any of these points of identification, it would be ensured that the necessary treatment/intervention is delivered at zero cost to the family.

      Target age group
