In many underdeveloped countries, the failure of the rural healthcare system poses a greater threat to the countries SDG goals in comparison to more developed countries. However, no country can move forward if its healthcare is lagging behind. Therefore, it is essential that governments pay great attention to this matter and come up with sustainable solutions that can eradicate premature deaths, infant deaths, and affect the overall mortality rate of the country.

One of the vital reasons for the failure of rural healthcare is the lack of awareness among rural communities. One of the best ways to eradicate the failure of rural healthcare is to raise awareness among rural communities about the importance of health issues. Ignorance of health issues can pose a great threat in the detection and prevention of health-related challenges in rural people. Healthcare practitioners stationed in rural areas and even medical students who are from such rural areas can play a leading role in educating the community about the importance of maintaining proper healthcare. If you are such a medical student, it can be helpful to you and to your community to keep yourself updated on medical knowledge. Even though it may be difficult to travel to institutes in the big cities to take courses and training, you can find an institute that offers a Key Feature Problems course also known as a KFP online course that can help you improve your knowledge and skills which you can share with your community members.

You can also raise awareness in the community by conducting health workshops and medical camps. It may be difficult to organize something of this caliber without the support of local authorities. Therefore, it is important to partner with local doctors, hospitals, medical practitioners, and local officials to organize a medical camp and have a workshop where not only the community will be provided with valuable information and knowledge but also be able to get free checkups which will be of great benefit to them. It would not be difficult to find medical officers who would want to volunteer for such a cause. With the help of such professionals, a big project like that can be organized successfully.

Medical officers can also help patients by imparting them with the knowledge relating to their health issues, prevention and cure for different ailments and treatment awareness can help a lot of people living in rural areas deal with their health problems. Various other methods like the distribution of leaflets and pamphlets which carry information on disease prevention, cure, and treatment can also be educational for community members. One of the most prominent areas of concern would be to educate people about sexually transmitted diseases and how such STDs can be prevented and treated with proper care. This would be valuable information that can benefit the rural community in a greater way.
