It was a heartwarming sight as many needy and ailing patients lined up to receive free healthcare services at the Health Camp organized in Sriperumbudur, Chennai, under Smile Foundation’s Swabhiman programme. The Health Camp was facilitated by a team of professional doctors who provided free-of-cost medical diagnosis, medicines, and counseling to the women on Menstrual hygiene, Antenatal and Post Natal care, Breastfeeding practices, Anemia and nutrition, Vaccination and Family planning.
Sensitizing the community people about the advantages of maintaining good health and hygiene was joined by Dow India volunteers– ERGs. The community people not only welcomed the idea of the free doorstep health camp but also promised the volunteers to instill health-seeking behavior in themselves.
