ASHAs in Health Care System: An Overview
Princy Singh, DR. RAJAN MISHRA
Abstract
People's health has significantly improved in the majority of countries around the world over the last
several decades. There are significant disparities in the health status of nations, regions, socioeconomic
classes, communities, and people despite overall gains in the state of health, such as declining newborn
death rates and increased life expectancy. According to this viewpoint, improving one's physical and
mental well-being and ensuring that everyone has access to a decent standard of living are political and
developmental issues. Although the poor state of health and the domestic and international factors that
contributed to it are acknowledged by the right to health care perspective, the issue of immediate concern
that has been brought up most frequently by it is the inequality and inequity in the public health care
systems. The National Rural Health Mission's goal is to send a trained female community health activist,
often known as an ASHA or Accredited Social Health Activist, to every village in the nation. The ASHA will
be taught to serve as a liaison between the community and the public health system and will be chosen
from within the village and held accountable to it
