Mother Tells Why She Appreciates Health Workers

Here’s a video of Mrs. Magdalena explaining what happened when her baby daughter Engracia had diarrhea for 3 days. She had to travel to the main town, so she went to the health post were she received medicine and advice on how to how to take good care of her daughter, how to feed her, what food to feed her, and advice about breastfeeding. “The health workers have been a great help and very patient with us, the mothers in the communities,” she says. “They explain how to keep our children healthy, how to feed them, and even how we as mothers have to eat good food in order to have good milk to breastfeed our babies.”
