Produktbeschreibung
Overall health conditions of urban poor are not good because they came in the urban areas with poor health conditions, which influenced by poverty and illiteracy. They get doubly affected because of poor living conditions with inadequate preventive health facilities and lack of sufficient curative health facilities. The slower rate of expansion of these health facilities is increasing the destitute conditions of the urban poor. On the other hand the urban inhabitants usually receive priority in government expenditures and policies, but even the large investments in general and specialized hospitals and clinics in the public sector, the facilities barely touch the health problems of urban poor, which lead them to seek modern health cares from private sector. According to the present study the poor slum inhabitants are sufferer from both preventive as well as curative health facilities. Moreover existing urban basic services deliveries are also inadequate and unsafe for use. Therefore, these available health cares services should place priority on accessibility for all walks of life that will make it possible to have good health for all.
