Abstract
Mother child tracking system(MCTS) is an information system for tracking maternal and child health beneficiaries in Indias public health system, and improving service delivery planning and outcomes. Auxiliary nurse midwife(ANM) has broad spectrum of responsibilities to play in under National health mission. In the present study the workload of ANM was estimated using standard methodology WISN(Workload indicators of staffing needs) given by WHO. Quantitative research approach with time-motion research design was chosen for the study. Workload was estimated in 21 civil dispensaries of Chandigarh, India. The workload was found to be high in 9 dispensaries. It was very high in 4 dispensaries where ANMs spent their total annual working time in doing activities under MCTS and they are left with no time for doing activities under other national health programs.
