Ground -level health care workers provide us a unique perspective of immunization programs. While our official data may be too rosy to be true, a casual / unscheduled /anonymous conversation with such foot- soldiers may bring us face -to- face with reality through another angle If we want our programs to be robust having a wide coverage, Mantra of success lies not only in making good policy while sitting in ivory -towers but also in folding our sleeves up, sweating under the tropical hot Sun, going to hinterlands and initiating a dialogue with those humble low- level workers who sometimes are invisible to us otherwise, not listened to and with whom sometimes promises are not kept.

According to the WHO (World Health Organization), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an elective therapy to treat people with post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD). In line with the personalization of therapeutic strategies, through this pilot study, we assessed in people suffering from the effects of trauma the feasibility, safety, acceptance, and efficacy of EMDR enriched with sound stimulation (by administering neutral sounds synchronized with the guided bilateral alternating stimulation of the gaze) and musical reward (musical listening based on the patients' predisposition and personal tastes). Feasibility, quantified by the number of patients who completed the treatment, was excellent as this was the case in 12 out of the 12 enrolled people with psychological trauma.

The aim of this study is to identify the key components needed for an effective intervention based on a clear theoretical foundation, consideration of how motivational interviewing can inform the intervention, clinical guidelines to date, and the insights of primary care nurses.
