When fully staffed by 3 medical officers including one lady doctor and supporting personnel.  the PHC is expected to provide fairly comprehensive ‘essential heath care’ including family planning care. The medical officers are usually trained to provide MTP and sterilization services. The programme of insertion of copper T IUCD has been intensified. Laparoscopic services will be made more widely available at the PHC.

Each subcentre staffed by one male and one female health worker, provides the main thrust of the family planning programme. They are responsible for providing rudimentary health and MCH care; family planning motivation, supplies and services in spacing methods.

At village level, village health guides and trained dais are the Iyichpins of the family planning delivery system in India. Trained dais besides conducting safe deliveries in rural areas, also act as family planning counsellors and motivator’s, supplementing the delivery system. Village health guides also spread knowledge and information to the eligible couples and provide them with supplies of Nirodh and oral pills.
