"SAM-3D Mission SuPoshan – the SAM Referral within 3 days"

A mission mode initiative under POSHAN Maah 2026 for SAM Referral within 3 Days with a mission-modeof Women & Child Development, Bongaigaon.

The initiative, launched under POSHAN Maah 2026 by the Women & Child Development Department, Bongaigaon, aims to ensure that every identified Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) child is promptly assessed, referred to the designated Nutrition Rehabilitation Centre (NRC) within 72 hours, and followed up after discharge.

Due to inadequate follow-up and monitoring, some identified SAM children have either lapsed from the referral process or become disconnected from follow-up services. This indicates the need for timely tracking, regular home visits, counselling of parents/guardians, and close coordination with NRC/health facilities to ensure that no SAM child is left without appropriate care and treatment.
