We continued our Health Services with our Mobile Medical Unit in the hard to reach areas of forest infested Birpara- Madarihat block of Alipurduar district, West Bengal, India by maintaining all directives issued by Govt. of India as well as Government of West Bengal. Social distancing and other pertinent rules of personal protection including Face Shield, Hand Gloves , Checking Temperature with Forehead Thermometer all were followed to avoid unwanted contamination of the fast spreading Coronavirus.
We are deeply indebted to National Health Mission (NHM), Government of India and Health Department- Govt. of West Bengal to retain the consortium in these noble essential efforts with facilities like free doctor’s consultation, medication, counseling, pathological diagnostic cares, reference for further treatments, arrangement to send critical cases to better health institutions, reference, referral cases to the govt. hospitals etc.
The hard to reach now closed 6 closed tea garden areas:
We continue to organize multiple medical camps at each of the locations so that all patients can be taken into complete health care observation and required follow ups. The commonly seen health issues in these areas are Cold, Fever, Gynaecological Problems, Hypertension, Anaemia etc. From the remotest corners of these areas ailing people thus avail these services to their close proximity.
Special care services of pregnant mothers through different kinds of tests, like-HIV, Haemoglobin, Blood group etc. and providing medicines following the doctor’s advices continued to be catered. Health issues related to increasing age and/or adolescence are also treated.
In the period between June’21 – October’21, we organized 101 such Medical Camps and served 6440 Patients by experienced Doctors. Around 1415 Diagnostic tests were made. 144 Patients are sent to Govt. Hospitals as referral cases which cannot be addressed in the Camps.
We will come back again shortly with reports for the coming days Medical endeavours
We are greatly indebted to those who continued to support us in the noble initiative to reach out and serve the earlier unreached people. We hope that this support will be continued and encourage us reaching out more un-reached people who are still deprived of the basic and essentially required services of Health.
