The necessity for this study arose due to our desire to learn first hand the reactions and reasons for irregularity and non-cooperation of the party i.e the patients. No doubt health visitors on repeated visits try to find out the main cause of irregularity; yet we felt that since health visitors are known to be a part of this institution, the patients may not tell them the real behind their non-cooperation. We felt that the students of the Delhi school of social work being unconnected with the centre and also by possessing proper attitude for this work would be able to bring out the real reasons.
