Why Choose LHV at EIRA?

LHVs are the backbone of community-level maternal and child health in Pakistan. Government runs Basic Health Units (BHUs) across every union council — and every BHU needs LHVs.

Beyond government postings, LHVs work in maternity hospitals, family planning clinics, NGOs, and EPI / MNCH programs. Many also start their own small maternity practice in their own community.

EIRA conducts NEBP board exams on schedule — students complete the program in 2 years and start earning on time, instead of waiting 6–12 months for a delayed session, which is common at many other LHV institutes.

EIRA's LHV program is taught by senior nurses and midwives with 20+ years of community-health experience, including practical fieldwork rounds.
