Clinic attenders who were 13 years old and above and who have been visiting more than once were considered to be involved. During the study period of 2 weeks each at respective health centre, 99 clinic attenders (74.7 per cent) patients and 25.3 per cent their companions) were observed.

Only 26.3 per cent said that they had seen HE activities done at health centres during their presence. Regarding the HE activities performed at health centres, 19.2 per cent were satisfied with the works of health centres and staff, whereas, about 71 per cent had no idea due to their unawareness. apart from HE talk and poster display, other HE activities were rarely observed. Due to availability during the study period, 12 health care providers could respond to our questionnaire. Their mean service year at the study place was 2.2 years. All respondents were aware of the HE activities performing at their health centres. All of them were found to be satisfied with their own performance, and only 3 (25 per cent) satisfied with their health centre's job.en_US
