Causes, Current Beliefs. Knowledge and Practices and Care-Seeking Behavior Current knowledge and practices of mothers in the area regarding childhood diarrhea and the use of oral rehydration therapy were explored during the November 2001 baseline KPC survey. Baseline KPC survey results revealed that among the 32 children in the sample who had experienced diarrhea during the two weeks prior to the survey, 74.1% were reportedly treated with ORS packets and sugar salt solutions mixtures. Of all mothers and caretakers, with children under the age of 2 years, surveyed, 73.7% could correctly describe how to mix a sugar-salt ORT. Only 65.5% of mothers/caregivers sought advice outside the home when their child had diarrhea. Although all women caring for children under five will be targeted, there will be an added emphasis in Phase II on improving the care seeking and home care practices of non-maternal caregivers. The KPC 2000 indicated that care of children with diarrhea by non-maternal caregivers is inferior to care given by the child’s own mothers. Fully 20% of caregivers, for example, said they did nothing during the child’s most recent diarrhea episode, while only 7% of mothers said they did nothing; and fewer caregivers than mothers had used any type of oral rehydration. In Phase II, a special effort will be made to reach these (usually older) caregivers with the oral rehydration message, through CHWs, HBCVs, TBAs, CHCs, pension day gatherings and church leaders. The Diakonia Council of Churches will carry out workshops for church leaders, while XXXX will train the CHCs and community workers and volunteers. Pension day presentations will be made by NDCSP staff and by TBAs trained by the NDCSP. Mothers will be reached through the channels established in Phase I, plus the new channels (churches, CHWs and HBCVs, and THs) planned for Phase II. It is understood that a critical problem in home management of diarrhea is the failure of mothers to give more or even the usual amount of liquids during a diarrhea episode (only 65.5% did so), or to offer extra breast-milk or food during recovery. For this reason, the BCC program will emphasize early and continuous administration of extra liquids during illness and increased feeding afterwards. In addition, only 14.8% of the mothers/caregivers practiced hand washing before feeding the child. Health education messages will also focus on inculcating basic hygiene practices as hand washing, which is essential to control diarrheal infections. In addi...
