PUBLIC HEALTH IN URBAN SLUMS

Health Care for All
#UniversalHealthCare

Medical Outreach Camps
Our free medical camps provide best in class primary health care to ultra-poor communities who have no access to basic healthcare services and have little or no knowledge about the diseases they are suffering from. At our camps we provide free medical advice and medicines to all patients. More

Telemedicine
An unfortunate side effect of the Covid 19 pandemic has been that patients with chronic and other illnesses are not able to get the treatment that they need. In addition, restrictions on mobility, have made it imperative to provide telemedicine services to ‘forward triage’ patients. Learn more about our response to Covid 19

Patient-Centred Care
We are strengthening patient-centred healthcare for the poorest of poor patients. In order to eliminate out-of-pocket expenses we assist patients who need tertiary and secondary care with insurance empanelled private hospitals, or with government hospitals. We also ensure that the patient has a strong support system through the hospital stay and after. Read more here

Capacity Building for Non-Medical Health Workers
We have developed disease-specific learning modules suitable for non-medical health workers. These modules help health workers create awareness about prevention and management of illnesses, especially chronic diseases. More
