- Reminders: The app sends automated SMS alerts and app notifications before a vaccination date arrives.
5. Accessing Emergency Services
One of the most critical features of the Thaimai app is the direct link to state emergency services.
- 108 Call: A single tap on the 108 button auto-fills the dialer for immediate ambulance support during labor or medical emergencies.
- 104 Call: Use the 104 button to connect with the medical helpline for health advice, counseling, or non-emergency guidance for you and your baby.
6. Educational Resources
The app provides a library of Information Posters and brochures. These resources offer guidance on:
- Nutritional diet plans for each trimester.
- Proper breastfeeding techniques.
- Identifying the "12 Signs of Child Development" in your newborn.
7. Sharing Data with Your VHN
The app is a two-way communication tool. When you complete your face verification or update a health milestone, the data is shared with your Village Health Nurse (VHN). If the app provides a verification number, make sure to share it with your VHN to ensure your digital records are fully synchronized.
By using the Thaimai Mother and Child App regularly, you ensure a safer pregnancy journey and a healthy start for your newborn through organized, digital-first healthcare.
