Summary

Our aim is to understand the factors responsible for delayed care seeking for pneumonia in selected communities in Pakistan with an objective to develop interventions involving counseling provided by LHW’s to bring about positive behavior change.

Documentation

Around 36% of deaths due to pneumonia in children under five occur at level of the household without ever reaching a healthcare provider. Our aim is to understand the factors responsible for delayed care seeking for pneumonia in selected communities in Pakistan with an objective to develop interventions involving counseling provided by LHW’s to bring about positive behavior change. Qualitative in depth interviews with mothers of under five children and focus group discussions with fathers and grandmothers of under five children were conducted.Data was collected from respondents residing in urban and rural settings from selected communities in Punjab, KPK, Sindh, Federal and AJK.
