Tipat Halav (Hebrew: טיפת חלב, lit. 'a drop of milk') is a network of primary healthcare centers in Israel. The centers provide post-natal well-baby and early childhood care to children across the county through the age of six. They offer well-baby checkups and vaccinations. The centers monitor children for developmental issues and public health concerns, as part of an effort to prevent childhood disease and mortality. New and prospective parents are also given assistance in learning about breastfeeding and child care, as well as to detect post-partum depression and domestic violence. The efforts of Tipat Halav resulted in a decline of more than 50% in infant mortality in pre-state Israel to among the world's lowest levels.
