A survey of foreign mother's utilization of the Japanese Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Handbook was carried out in two cities and one town in Okinawa, Japan. The subjects were 35 foreign mothers of infants who participated in health check-up at municipal health facilities or private hospitals. Most of the mothers got the MCH Handbook towards the end of the 4th month of pregnancy. The number of mothers who received educational guidance for the MCH Handbook by health professionals was different among mother's nationahty, the highest being the group of mothers from Latin America. The mothers from Latin America had read and recorded more items in the handbook than mothers from Asia/Africa and USA/Europe. Regardless of the nationality, half mothers of 3 groups answered the book was not useful. A large percentage of mothers of 3 groups desire municipality to provide MCH Handbook in their own language. It is necessary to provide a multilanguage version of the MCH Handbook that will be useful for all foreign mothers who are residing in Japan.
