Jankikund Chikitsalaya developed its obstetrics and gynaecology department as its main pillar of services, owing to the acute need for specialized services for women and child care. In the rural region surrounding Chitrakoot, health services for women and children are scarce as they form the most vulnerable sections of the communities resulting in high maternal and infant mortality rate.
The department was inaugurated as Matritva Sadan (Home for Mothers) with funding support. from Surekha Charitable Trust. The prime objective of the department is to provide safe motherhood and child birth. It also encourages couples and families to adopt family planning measures. The Department has two labour rooms, a well equipped Operation Theatre, a special Neonatal ward, private wards and a General Ward. There are specialist doctors available 24 hours for any emergency. The Department is dedicated to providing treatment and care to the rural women and children.
