Research Abstract

This research aims to analyze impact of outreach health services that is located to closest to beneficiaries on the reduction of infant mortality and morbidity rates as well as health behavior of caretakers in peri-urban area in Zambia. Cohort survey was adopted to analyze the mortality and morbidity rates in intervention and control areas. The target infant was followed from 6 to 11 month-age with a monthly monitoring method. Behavioral change of the caretakers was assessed with KAP survey in both areas. The surveys were conducted in the beginning of the intervention as baseline data and the end of the intervention. The mortality rates and incident rated of malaria were improved in the intervention area. The result shows the outreach health activities are considered effective interventions to improve health condition of the infant.
