Maternal and Child Health Trends in Georgia

Abstract

The protection of maternal and child health and clinical effectiveness of their medical services is largely dependent on
pregnant women's antenatal and postnatal services and is one of the key priorities of the health care system in the country. Global health statistics in Georgia has been observed in maternal and infant mortality rates on a downward trend, but
the situation is still important. In the 1990s while developing market economic, post-soviet country Georgia was one of
the first which began reform in health care system. While this reform the maternal and child health care programs become priority. Antenatal surveillance service of pregnant women has been granted to beneficiaries since 1996. In recent
years, financial services access to antenatal growth (Ministry of Labor, Health and Social Protection Ministry of mothers
and children in the program, which funds antenatal care visit 4) timely referral of pregnant women has led to an increase
in primary-care settings. Despite increasing of receiving antenatal treatment, pathological child delivery was also increased. If we compare the situation of maternal health for a better assessment of the National Center for Disease Control and Public Health, published by the statistical data (2000 -2014 years), in particular maternal and child health conditions of some of the figures: it can be said that the maternal and child health indicators are still not desired. The issue is
very important, for the smallest nation in Georgia, where demography is acute.
