NGO Healthcare Services for the Garo Indigenous Community: A Study in Mymensingh District of Bangladesh

People of Garo tribal community aren’t aware of their basic health care. They are socially and culturally distinct from mainland Bengalis and lack modern healthcare facilities (no public or private hospitals) and that’s why they have to rely on long-practised traditional healing methods to aid recovery from illness. The significant number of the respondents are housewives (36.8%) and day labour (24.1%) who have to work hard to earn their livelihood. According to the case of adolescents’ health service, 5.8% are somewhat and 7.3% unsatisfied. Therefore, the government as well as NGOs need to undertake awareness programs to increase awareness among the Garo community about health problems and relevant treatments. Therefore, the study focuses on improving health care and performance. Contributes to maternal health-related interest which helps to bring more health care services in Dhobaura upazila. The findings of this study will be helpful in improving healthcare facilities and policy recommendations.
