Initiative Overview:
SaveMom: Transforming Maternal Healthcare
SaveMom, our pioneering initiative, is dedicated to transforming maternal healthcare in the Dhule district through innovative digital solutions and strategic collaborations with local hospitals, NGOs, and government institutions. Our mission is clear: “Healthy Mom, Healthy Baby.”
Innovative Platform:
SaveMom serves as an integrated digital healthcare platform designed specifically for the unique needs of Dhule’s maternal healthcare system.
Our platform enables seamless upload and analysis of medical data for expectant mothers, leveraging advanced AI and ML algorithms tailored to local healthcare contexts.
Through early detection capabilities, we identify high-risk pregnancies at an early stage, enabling prompt interventions and personalized care plans to improve outcomes for mothers and infants.
In rural areas, maternal and neonatal mortality persists as a significant concern, stemming from a multitude of factors. In response, SaveMom has undertaken an innovative initiative aimed at combating these challenges. Spearheaded by Shubham Gupta, Chief Executive Officer of Dhule Zilla Parishad, and supported by District Health Officer Sachin Bodke, as well as Chief Minister’s Fellow Sujit Sawant, this experiment represents a collaborative effort to improve maternal and neonatal health outcomes.
At the helm of SaveMom’s leadership is CEO Senthil Kumar M., whose vision and commitment drive the organization’s mission to revolutionize maternal healthcare. With a focus on leveraging digital technologies and strategic partnerships, SaveMom aims to implement comprehensive solutions tailored to the unique needs of rural communities.
This initiative marks a significant step forward in the collective effort to address maternal and neonatal mortality, underscoring the importance of collaboration and innovation in safeguarding the health and well-being of mothers and infants in rural areas.
Fertile couples and high-risk pregnant women residing in planned villages are being registered on the ‘Save Mom’ portal utilizing information technology. Once enrolled on this platform, high-risk expectant mothers will receive ongoing support, including essential medical services, nutritional guidance, regular check-ups, counseling sessions, and safe delivery assistance.
The technology system developed for this purpose has been extensively trained and deployed within the health department at the taluka level, as well as across all primary health centers. These services will be available from the moment pregnant mothers are registered until their child reaches three years of age.
Data collected will be inputted into the SaveMom portal, where advanced AI and ML algorithms will swiftly identify any high-risk conditions, enabling early intervention and personalized care.
Implementation in Latur:
In Latur district, the ‘Save Mom’ initiative was officially launched on 6th February and is being piloted across four primary health centers: Nilanga in Nilanga Taluka, Kasar Balkunda in Nilanga Taluka, Halgara in Udgir Taluka, and Her and Devarjan in Udgir Taluka. Under the leadership of CEO Anmol Sagar from Zilla Parishad Latur, the initiative aims to provide comprehensive healthcare services to high-risk pregnant women and other pregnant women in the district. Through modern technology and strategic partnerships with Save Mom and the State Government of Maharashtra, pregnant women’s records are made online, enabling timely interventions and follow-up treatments. Health workers conduct home visits and counseling sessions during pregnancy, ensuring that pregnant women receive the necessary care and support.
