Abstract

The study assessed the knowledge and utilization of primary health centre services among 100 women in a rural Udupi community using descriptive research designs and a structured self-administered knowledge questionnaire. The tool's reliability and validity were tested with nursing and medicine experts. The collected data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The study found that 84% of women had poor knowledge scores about primary health centre services, with a mean of 17.62. 100% utilized these services and practiced a balanced diet to prevent nutritional disorders. Factors like number of children had no significant association with knowledge scores, indicating partial acceptance of hypothesis H1. The study found that most women lack knowledge about primary health center services, but use them and consume balanced diets to prevent nutritional disorders.
