dc.description.abstractMothers and children in any country comprise a large vulnerable population subgroup. In order to address the myriad health needs of women and children, maternal and child health (MCH) services have been bolstered in India. Tribal women are facing many hurdles in the utilisation of MCH services which is ultimately affecting their health outcomes.This study aimed to explore the issues and challenges faced by tribal women during the utilisation of MCH services. Beneficiaries were facing issues like hospital environment and sub-centre issues, travelling/ transportation problems, lack of family support, awareness issues, and personal, social, and political issues while utilising maternal and child health services of tribal areas.It was concluded that there is a need to reduce the problems faced by tribal women regarding the utilisation of MCH services to enhance their level of satisfaction in order to promote maternal and child health which will ultimately help in achievement of SDGs.en_US
