by Shrutee K/DNS 

Our organization has embarked on a project which will be one of the biggest ever in the history of medical aid and assistance to the most needy who are suffering from various diseases or ailments and are unable to even get or procure diagnostic help to identify the cause and treat it successfully and get well. Such problems have led to numerous families becoming unstable and getting unsettled as in many cases the bread-winner has got affected.

This problem is becoming huge with each passing day and thousands of families are left to face the after effects of untimely deaths of the head of the family on whom they are so dependant. Something needs to be done in a drastic way to save the lives of sole bread-winners and safeguard their families who have to then live a miserable life. The next generation in this case gets affected so badly that the survivors, mostly children have to forego education and ultimately work as child labourers, just to keep the home fires burning. Through this we aim to serve at least 2 lakh needy patients in a day . The programme should be a world record as an event of such magnitude has not been held anywhere else.

The camp is aimed at providing numerous facilities to those who are suffering from various life threatening and lifestyle related ailments. On that day we will carry the following tests as per every individual’s requirement: Blood Test: CBC, ESR, BUN, Haemoglobin, Serum Creatinine, Blood Sugar, HIV Rapid Test, Hepatitis A, B and C and vaccination. We will also be doing ECG, 2D Echo-cardiogram, X-Rays, Bone Density Tests. Patients in need of will be provided free spectacles. Besides facilitating various tests we will be providing the participants with all types of medicines free of cost for ailments like HIV, Tuberculosis, Jaundice-Hepatitis, Diabetes, Heart Disease and Hypertension, Fever, Colds, Aches and Arthritis-Rheumatism and other common diseases which will be detected during the camp.

We are also taking the help of Yoga experts to counsel and impart knowledge related to the ancient indigenous system or science which is considered as one of the important therapies to alleviate illness without any financial costs. Those suffering from Heart Disease, Hypertension, Diabetes, Arthritic Pain, Digestive, Sleep, Skin and other disorders will be benefitted in a big way. Overall Yoga is known to be therapeutically effective against chronic ailments.

To successfully organize this mega-camp we have planned to rope in the services of 5 thousand specialists,and General Practitioners and Paramedics. They will receive support of at least 15 thousand volunteers to carry out their task of helping the patients right from transportation to registration to the actual check-ups and treatment including procuring of medicines from our drug bank.

The break-up of the required man power broadly will be as follows: 

Volunteers for registration: 1000

We would like you to enlighten about our earlier venture where we managed to cater to 55 thousand patients in a single day. Keeping this in mind we are confident that we will be able to mobilize the resources to successfully conduct a camp of such magnitude. Any activity, in this case medico-social requires a huge effort from almost all quarters. In our past endevour we got immense support from various organizations like financial institutions, business houses, social organizations, non-governmental organizations, trusts in the form of donations, free medicines, voluntary services etc. for this mega event.

We have received solid support from the film fraternity and also from the government and hope that this time around their involvement will be even greater. As our aim is to serve the needy the camp will be open to all irrespective of age, caste, creed, community or religion.
